I just looked at the copy sitting in the FTP directory for Unidata McIDAS, and it is not missing the " after the echo. The next character after the echo is a CTRL-G (bell), so that may be causing the problem for some reason (it doesn't on other Linux systems). >Now I'm getting this error > >./mccomp -O -g77 -I. -I../netcdf/libsrc -I../hdf/hdf/src - >I../hdf/mfhdf/libsrc -I../jpeg -I../zlib -I >../tiff/libtiff -I../libgeotiff -c enh24.c >mccomp: Using default optimizations >rm -f enh24.o >gcc -c -O -I. -I../netcdf/libsrc -I../hdf/hdf/src -I../hdf/mfhdf/libsrc - >I../jpeg -I../zlib -I../tiff >/libtiff -I../libgeotiff enh24.c >enh24.c:9:22: X11/Xlib.h: No such file or directory >enh24.c:10:23: X11/Xutil.h: No such file or directory >enh24.c:11:21: X11/Xos.h: No such file or directory >enh24.c:12:23: X11/Xatom.h: No such file or directory >enh24.c:14:24: X11/keysym.h: No such file or directory >enh24.c:17:19: X11/X.h: No such file or directory >enh24.c: In function `enh24_': >enh24.c:24: `Display' undeclared (first use in this function) >enh24.c:24: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once >enh24.c:24: for each function it appears in.) >enh24.c:24: `displayid' undeclared (first use in this function) >enh24.c:26: `XEvent' undeclared (first use in this function) >enh24.c:26: syntax error before "report" >enh24.c:50: `report' undeclared (first use in this function) >compile enh24.c: FAILED > This is saying that the Linux box does not have a full development enviornment loaded on it -- the X windows include files are missing. You should go back and load a full development enviornment on the machine and then retry the build after doing a 'make clobber'.
