Describe the bug
The current output of mdstcl show version looks like:
mdstcl show version
MDSplus version: 7.140.68 ---------------------- Release: alpha_release_7.140.68 Browse: https://github.com/MDSplus/mdsplus/tree/alpha_release_7.140.68 Download: https://github.com/MDSplus/mdsplus/archive/alpha_release_7.140.68.tar.gz
The Release describes something in-between a tag and a version, it should instead be: alpha_release-7-140-68
Release
alpha_release-7-140-68
Which would then fix the links for Browse and Download https://github.com/MDSplus/mdsplus/tree/alpha_release-7-140-68 https://github.com/MDSplus/mdsplus/archive/alpha_release-7-140-68.tar.gz
However, we might want to instead link to the GitHub Release page, which contains all the new download links: https://github.com/MDSplus/mdsplus/releases/tag/alpha_release-7-140-68
And potentially, although I'm not sure if this is a great idea, we could link to the right materials for this specific installation, e.g.
A package-less install (just /usr/local/mdsplus) from: https://github.com/MDSplus/mdsplus/releases/download/alpha_release-7-140-68/mdsplus_alpha_7.140.68_ubuntu20_amd64.tgz would link back to that .tgz file
And an install from the .deb/.rpm/etc files (either from a repo or GitHub): https://github.com/MDSplus/mdsplus/releases/download/alpha_release-7-140-68/mdsplus_alpha_7.140.68_ubuntu20_amd64_debs.tgz would link back to that .tgz file
