It appears that you are not running v1.9.0-rc1.

Before doing a "query udct", do a "query config" and send me the output of
that. Are you certain that you started the v1.9.0-rc1 executable? Notice
that "grads" is *not* one of the executables. To be sure, do something like:

$home/grads/bin/gradsnc
...
ga-> q udct

You should see something like:

           @ ---> udc_env() from <env.gex.dylib>
         env ---> udc_env() from <env.gex.dylib>
      getenv ---> udc_getenv() from <env.gex.dylib>
      setenv ---> udc_setenv() from <env.gex.dylib>
        xenv ---> udc_xenv() from <env.gex.dylib>
    printenv ---> udc_xenv() from <env.gex.dylib>
       gxyat ---> gxyat() from <gxyat.gex.dylib>
       hello ---> cmd_hello() from <libhello.gex.dylib>
    ipc_verb ---> cmd_Verb() from <libipc.gex.dylib>
    ipc_open ---> cmd_Open() from <libipc.gex.dylib>
   ipc_close ---> cmd_Close() from <libipc.gex.dylib>
    ipc_save ---> cmd_Save() from <libipc.gex.dylib>
  ipc_define ---> cmd_Define() from <libipc.gex.dylib>
   ipc_error ---> cmd_Error() from <libipc.gex.dylib>

while

ga-> q udft

should produce:

 Notice that in GrADS v1.9, one usually does something like

% ln -s gradsnc grads

in order to be able to type just "grads".
