Just a bit more on this -
togeo/fromgeo require input from the user.
gdt_conv_cmd does not - all the parameters are specified at the command line
(so this is the one to use).
To convert from EN to LATLONG just specify GEODETIC as the output projection

 gdt_conv_cmd -a nad27 -b nutm11 -c nad27 -d geodetic
  -x 480000 -y 3620000 -z 0.0

should give output of -
-117.213418 32.719307 0.000000

Here is the usage fyi...

Usage: gdt_conv_cmd [switches]

       Converts a point from input datum/projection to output
       datum/projection. Transformed results are printed to stdout.
       as an x y z triple. Any error messages are sent to stderr.
switches:
  -u               Display Usage Information.
  -a <datum>       Input geodetic datum
  -b <projection>  Input geodetic projection
  -c <datum>       Output geodetic datum
  -d <projection>  Output geodetic projection
  -x <double>      Input x coordinate
  -y <double>      Input y coordinate
  -z <double>      Input z coordinate

  Example:
  gdt_conv_cmd -a nad27 -b nutm11 -c wgs84 -d nutm11
  -x 480000 -y 3620000 -z 0.0
  gives output of:
  479920.197 3620197.254 -21.445

Hope this helps 
bye
Mike
