NCO (NetCDF operators) doesnt seem to have installed ncrcat (Anaconda)

Question

So I've installed nco using the following command: conda install -c conda-forge nco which gives me nco version 7.8.1

However, when I try to run ncrcat I get:

ncrcat is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Other commands work fine. This suggests ncrcat has not been installed, how do I install that?

The behavior you describe is unlikely unless you are using Windows, in which case the solution is to copy ncra.exe to ncrcat.exe more or less like this:

copy ncra.exe ncrcat.exe

I am on windows, yes; sorry forgot that detail. Where would I type this? – EvanBaker Nov 03 '19 at 10:44
In a DOS window in the directory where ncra.exe was installed – Charlie Zender Nov 04 '19 at 01:49
So I think the folder anconda installs to is "C:\Users\Evan\Anaconda3\pkgs\nco-4.8.1-habc9422_100\Library\bin" I copied the file, but I get the same error. Any ideas? – EvanBaker Nov 04 '19 at 08:54
Wait no, there was another one in "C:\Users\Evan\Anaconda3\Library\bin", and that worked. thankyou – EvanBaker Nov 04 '19 at 09:04
