Randy,

>i have grabbed the files:
>Changes.770
>mcidasx770.tar.Z
>Whatsnew.77x

You should also grab:

mcinstall
mcinet7.7.sh

>do i also need a .sh file to build mcidas on the Alpha?

No.  The procedure for building Unidata McIDAS-X/XCD is different from
the SSEC procedure:

o FTP the needed files: mcinstall mcinet7.7.sh mcidasx770.tar.Z
  _in binary mode_ to your ~mcidas directory

o chmod +x mcinstall

o define McINST_ROOT in your 'mcidas' Unix session (typically /home/mcidas)
o define environment variables used in the building of the netCDF portion
  of McIDAS-X.  See:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/mcidas/770/mcx/warnings_mcx.html#netcdf

  for details

  These settings are best done in your shell default file: .cshrc for C shell
  users; .kshrc and/or .profile for Korn/Bourne shell users.  Remember that
  you need to make the settings active before proceeding (e.g., source .cshrc;
  . .kshrc; or logout and then log back in).

o ./mcinstall

o cd mcidas7.7/src

o make                   <- build Unidata McIDAS-X
  or
  make mcx               <- build Unidata McIDAS-X
  or
  make all               <- build Unidata McIDAS-X and -XCD

o make install           <- install Unidata McIDAS-X under $McINST_ROOT
  or
  make install.mcxall    <- install Unidata McIDAS-X under $McINST_ROOT
  or
  make install.all       <- install Unidata McIDAS-X, -XCD under $McINST_ROOT

will do. those files have an older time tag on them (12/6/00 and 6/3/00). I
assume this is ok.
