Gr-modtool: command not found?

Hello,

I have used the python and gnuradio-companion parts of gnuradio till
now. I
am going through the tutorial of
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/OutOfTreeModules#gr-modtool-The-swiss-army-knife-of-module-editingat
present. I have tried to execute both of the following commands
outside
my gnuradio directory:

gr_modtool newmod howto

gr-modtool newmod howto

Unfortunately, I get the following error:

gr_modtool: command not found

The website says that gr-modtool comes with gnuradio installation by
default. I installed this version of gnuradio 6-7 months ago (Can I
check
my gnuradio version with a simple command?).

Since I don’t have gr_modtool, do I have to install it separately?

Thanks,

Nazmul

Nazmul,

You can find your current GNU Radio version by running the following
command:

echo -e “from gnuradio import gr\nprint gr.version()” | python

It looks like gr_modtool was added in version 3.6.4.

You can also type:

$ gnuradio-config-info -v

If you’re using an older version of GNU Radio, you can download a
standalone script at
https://github.com/mbant/gr-modtool/raw/master/gr_modtool.py.

Just copy that into your $PATH. It’s not as complete as that in GNU
Radio, though.
