(I read today's "Command not found" thread).
Now I can execute commands properly. The problem applies to executing any programs installed by Fink, not just fink commands like the problem in the FAQ.

The issue of .xinitrc is only relevant if you cannot run applications from the X11 "Terminal" (really xterm), but can run them from the OSX Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app). Is this the case?

Do you have a ".xinitrc" file in your home directory? I remember that there was something written about Apple X11 and whether or not you need ".xinitrc" file. In case you want to have one in your home directory, see the following link on how to do it and modify it to source to "/sw/bin/init.sh".

When I try to execute a command from a program I just installed with FinkCommander, I get a "Command not found" message.
For example, I downloaded ddd, and it opens properly when I execute it directly from within /sw/bin/ . When I'm in another directory, though, and I type "ddd", I get the message "ddd: Command not found.". I looked in my .cshrc file, and it contains the line "source /sw/bin/init.csh" (followed by 2 newlines) like it's supposed to. The file /sw/bin/init.csh exists and contains a bunch of stuff I don't understand.
I'm using "X11 for Mac OS X" and Mac OS X 10.2.4. I tried to execute ddd from an X11 xterm window. I used the Fink 0.5.1 Binary Installer, and then installed FinkCommander is 0.5.0 (binary). The problem persists if I log out and back in.
BTW, I've been using UNIX for less than 2 months.
