Specific cross platform IDL problem... [message #25335] Wed, 06 June 2001 13:29

OK, this is highly platform specific...
I use a Mac running OS-X as an X-windows client (using Xtools from Tenon) to
an SGI machine.
When using IDL (or IDLDE), the "window" command is supposed to open a new
window. It just hangs when run in Xtools. I don't know what's specific about
those windows, but I get tons of "X window protocol error: BadValue" in the
console when starting IDL.

Opening other X-windows do not cause problems; and if I use another
X-windows manager (twm or WindowMaker in XDarwin) IDL works.

Any clue ?

"The term reboot comes from the middle age (before computers). Horses who
stopped in mid-stride required a boot to the rear to start again. Thus the
term to rear-boot, later abbreviated into reboot."
