    Dear Anthony:
        I also use RedHat 8.0. When I compile magic, I usually go something
    like:
    
    cd /home/cad/magic-7.2.34
    make clean
    make config   (usually I select tcl and then X11, but openGL works fine
    also)
    make tcl
    make install-tcl
    
    Then when I run magic, I invoke it as
    
    magic -w
    
    This invokes the Tcl interpreter as a wrapper (thats the -w) around magic
    and creates pull-down menus which are very useful.
    
    Try this formula and let us know how you fare.
