Mike,

OK.

This seems to be telling us that 'mcwish' was not built properly.  Try
doing the following and send the results back:

<login as user 'mcidas'>
cd mcidas7.5/src
ldd mcwish

>I went back and tested the build (i.e. from the ~mcidas/mcidas7.5/src) and got

Executables created in mcidas7.5/src are linked to the ~mcidas/bin directory,
so you would have been testing the exact same module.

>I don't recall any errors or anything unusual during the build. Any ideas
>where I might have gone wrong?

For some reason 'mcwish' is not able to find the shared tk library.  This
will cause all of the Tcl/Tk GUI items to fail.  Once we find this, you
should be on your way.

>thanks for your help,

One quick thought.  Try deleting and remaking mcwish.

Another thought.  You didn't happen to change your McINST_ROOT 
sometime after the initial build, did you?  Perhaps the original time you
ran make, there was some sort of a problem that you then corrected by
changing this environment variable and then you continued.
This could cause the configure step in the Tcl or Tk build to have the
wrong directory indicated as the final repository for the shared tk
library.  If you did do this, you will need to remake the Tcl/Tk portion
and then remake 'mcwish':

cd ~mcidas/mcidas7.5/tcl/unix
make distclean
cd ~mcidas/mcidas7.5/tk/unix
make distclean
cd ~mcidas/mcidas7.5/src
rm tclcomp
rm mcwish
make ...

        libtk8.0.so =>   (not found)
        libtcl8.0.so =>  (not found)

        libintl.so.1 =>  /usr/lib/libintl.so.1
        libmp.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libmp.so.1

Looks like it can't find the tcl/tk shared libraries. I'll remake tcl/tk like 
you mentioned below and see if that fixes my problem.
