Dear Nigel and the rest of you ,

Thanks for your reply! -Actually item 2 was a problem: I ran out of
logical file numbers in IDL, as I was displaying a lot of files until I
couldn't do that anymore. Changing the command to:

spawn,"/usr/bin/X11/gv "+outfile+" >& /dev/null & "

solved the problem.

Greetings, Ole

Part of the post from Nigel Wade:

> That's because you have specified unit=a on the spawn command.
> IDL has not yet finished with the process, the command 'close,a'
> should get rid of it.
