I've spent the last few days porting some VAX IDL code to the PC and have
come across some bugs.

1) findfile:

findfile on the pc insists on striping of the directory path to a file
for example:

print, findfile ('c:\source\*.pro')

returns a string array containing:

file1.pro c:\source\file1.pro
file2.pro instead of c:\source\file2.pro
... ...

2) graphics pipe doesn't get flushed:

when plotting it seems that the graphics buffer doesn't get flushed and will
only do so on a subsequent plot.


I'll limit my ranting and raving to these. I have manages to make work arounds
for most of the DOS limitations. Has anyone come across these aswell and found
a solution? The flushing of the graphics pipe is a big problem!
