I have gotten a

% Ambiguous keyword abbreviation: KEY

error if I make define a procedure like:

PRO ProcedureName, ..., KEYWORD=KEYWORD, ..., KEY=KEY, ....

and then called it with:

ProcedureName, KEYWORD=KEY.

David Fanning has a program, COLORBAR which also produces the error if
used, for example:

COLORBAR, DIV=5, MAX=10,MIN=0, FORMAT='(F5.2)'

I'm using IDL 5.2 for WIN32, in an NT machine.

Has anyone had the same problem?. Is it a bug? (By default, I think
IDL should check if there exists a keyword whose full name is the one we
are using in the call, and search for abbreviatons afterwords.)
