Thanks to those who responded to my previous query; this seems like a
friendly group.
I am wondering about the gooey routine ascii_template, as in:
myTemplate = ASCII_TEMPLATE(myfile)
Is there a way to specify a template by hand, in a template file,
without going through the darn gooey? For one thing, it doesn't seem
to save the template, so each session I have to redo it. Maybe that's
because I have the student version?
Also: Has anyone had success calling IDL for Windows as a sub-process
of NT-Emacs?
Thanks,
Andrew.

I'm afraid I don't have what it takes to give this a try right now,
but it sounds plausible, and I bet there would be heaps of gratitude
from more than just me, if someone could try this in Windows NT.
(Off-topic: if someone did get this working, and idlwave-shell worked
under NT-Emacs, and I finally convinced David of the True Path of
Emacs, we might all be treated to his inimitable insights... ;-)
Cheers,
