Erick,

I just noticed that you (or someone else at UC Davis) grabbed the
Unidata McIDAS-X release via the web on Thursday, March 24.  I was
right in the middle of making a bugfix addenda right around that time.
Late Friday, I updated the release with modifications to three routines
that were shown to cause McIDAS session failure when when run from
BATCH scripts.  For this reason, you will probably want to regrab the
distribution before you spend too much time
building/installing/configuring it.

Please let me know if it was _not_ you that grabbed the distribution
on the 24th.

Tom
