Dave,

My records showed that you downloade the package on August 8:

snowball.millersville.edu - - [08/Aug/2001:14:16:33 -0600] "GET 
/packages/mcidas/780/download/mcx780/mcidasx780.tar.Z HTTP/1.0" 200 47523022 
"-" "Mozilla/4.7 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.7 sun4u)"

Yes, two small ones.  You can easily upgrade your distribution(s) by
doing the following:

<login as 'mcidas'>
cd mcidas7.8/update
ftp ftp.unidata.ucar.edu
  <user> umcidas
  <pass> XXXXXX
  cd unix/780/bugfix
  binary
  get mcupdate.tar.Z
  quit
./mcunpack
cd ../src
make mcx

If you are building using gcc/f2c, also run:

make install.mcx

That's it in a nutshell!

>Thanks!

Later...
