David,

If the installation directory structure for the user 'mcidas' is
_exactly_ the same on the target machine, and the operating system
revision level is the same, there should be no problem doing this.
If the installation structure for 'mcidas' is different, then the
Tcl/Tk component of the distribution will have to be remade. This
does not mean that the entire distribution has to be rebuilt. One
could:
o copy the entire McIDAS installation tree from one machine to the
other
o cd to ~mcidas/mcidas7.6/tcl/unix
make distclean
o cd to ~mcidas/mcidas7.6/tk/unix
make distclean
o cd ~mcidas/mcidas7.6/src
rm tclcomp
o make mcx
make install.mcx
