No worries.

Hmm... I am not familiar with any /home/mcidas/mcupdate directory.  Is this
one you created for your development efforts?

After modifying code in a 'DLM' (Dynamic Link Module) file, you will simply
need to run 'make'.  The time stamp on the source file should be sufficient
to cause make to recompile all routines that depend on the file(s) you 
modified; rebuild the appropriate library (libmcidas.a); and relink any
executables.  If you are using GNU compilers (e.g., gcc/g77), you will need
to do a 'make install' to install the new executables (an 'install' in McIDAS
is a link (hard or symbolic) from the executable in the ~mcidas/mcidas<ver>/src
directory to the ~mcidas/bin directory).


Cheers,

Tom
