Albert,
  You can put the Tachyon compilation anywhere you want so long
as you adjust the vmd/configure script directories appropriately:
$libtachyon_dir = "$vmd_library_dir/tachyon";
$libtachyon_include = "-I$libtachyon_dir/include";
$libtachyon_library = "-L$libtachyon_dir/lib_$config_arch";

You can change any of those three lines to force VMD to look
in a particular path/directory for the Tachyon include files
and libraries.

Cheers,
  John Stone
