Hi Randy,

re:

> the file from one location to another.  Is this correct?

No, not really.  Unlike a simple copy like 'LWU COPY sfile dfile', IMGCOPY
is interpreting information in an image header so that it could do things
like sample, etc.  Also, since IMGCOPY is an ADDE command, it can copy/modify
images from remote server to the local machine.

re:
> Waiting on MUG to get back to me on costs etc.

OK.  I was surprised at the $15 estimate that Mary Ellen mentioned as
the cost of re-joining the MUG.  For single machine installations, it
should be much less:

  -> Policies and Fees

     -> Year 2012 MUG Fees

        a.      McIDAS-X SX license (one or two workstations)   $7,680

Licensing 3, 4 or 5 workstations would, of course, cost more, $15,360.

Cheers,

Tom
