Randy,

>I have made all the changes except to tclcomp.sh.

Sorry that I didn't include this in the previous email.  The change
was to add a specific line for OSF1 in the RUNTIME_PATH setting section.
Here are my mods:

# if this is Solaris, need to add a run-time path when linking
# <<<<< UPC mods 981130 >>>>> - added Linux and OSF1 to list
#                               of OSes needing RUNTIME_PATH
#
RUNTIME_PATH=
case \`uname -sr\` in
"SunOS 5."*) RUNTIME_PATH="-R $TCL_PREFIX/lib";;
"Linux 2."*) RUNTIME_PATH="-Wl,-rpath,$TCL_PREFIX/lib";;
OSF1*) RUNTIME_PATH="-Wl,-rpath,$TCL_PREFIX/lib";;
IRIX*) RUNTIME_PATH="-Wl,-rpath,$TCL_PREFIX/lib";;
HP-UX*) RUNTIME_PATH="-Wl,+b,$TCL_PREFIX/lib";;
esac

>i will compile using vendor compilers.

After I sent the first email, it struck me that the mod to mcaget.for
might well be the key for you.  I can't remember for sure what the
error(s) we were getting was(were) (after all, I ran into them in
October of 1996), but I do remember that it(they) was(were) limited to
imagery access by ADDE.  Since this is your problem also, it is most
likely that our change will work for you.  The interesting question
then will be if it works for vendor compilers, does it also work for
gcc/f2c.

>thanks,

Later...

Tom

Hi Tom,

Oh, and also thank you for helping out Randy Alliss at TASC. He's
sitting happily now.

Cheers,
