Ehsan,

Please include the error message you get when you try a new command.

As for uninstalling NCL, it depends on how you installed it.  If you
installed it to its own directory, like /usr/local/ncl-6.1.2, then you can
simply remove the directory:

rm -rf  /usr/local/ncl-6.1.2

If you installed it with a bunch of other software, then there's no way to
gracefully remove it. You would need to remove the individual files
associated with NCL.
