[OS X TeX] terminal and tex4ht

I am very inexperienced at the terminal and not very clear where
things reside on my MacBookPro. I was trying to get SimpleTex4ht.app
to work, but it said tex4ht was not installed. I could see it in a
folder but don't know what it takes to "install" it, so I went to the
i-installer and in the "expert" mode installed tex4ht with no
problems noted. However tex4ht "path to tex file" gives -bash:
tex4ht: command not found.
ls /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local
bibtex dvips metapost tex
context fonts scripts tex4ht
doc ls-R source web2c
I tried sudo texhash ( I don't know what it does, but I hoped it
would find/do something) I typed my password and I got
sudo: texhash: command not found
Now I am getting scared. TeXShop still works, so it understands where
things are, but I don't know what has changed.
On my G4 all of these commands work with an installation from over a
year ago. When I got the MacBookPro I installed TeX and the
MacTeX.dmg and TeXShop which work fine. I did install the fink
installer yesterday and I know that played around in the terminal for
a long time. Hopefully that is not my problem. I really don't know
what I am doing there. I'm just trying to learn
Any help would be appreciated. By the way, it doesn't look like any
math or formatting is converted in the html document (on my G4). Is
that to be expected? Thanks.
