Yes,

did you tried

help,call=call

in your routine

PRO test

HELP,call=call
PRINT,call

file=within_brackets(call[0],brackets=['<','('])
PRINT,file

fpe=file_path_name_ext(file)
PRINT,fpe.name

END

The result is for example

TEST </private/20020829/test.pro( 3)> $MAIN$

Now you can separate this by whithin_brackets
result is /private/20020829/test.pro

The separation of path, routine and extension is done by file_path_name_ext.

PRINT,fpe.name shows "test"

You need the following routines from our library:

http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/within_brackets.tar.gz
or
http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/within_brackets.sav

and

http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/file_path_name_ext.tar.gz
or
http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/file_path_name_ext.sav

(Remember a idl compiled file with the extension sav is automaticly
loaded the first time it is used.
This is the same behaviour as for idl sources (.pro).
They run on each idl platform with the same idl version (5.5))

For further routines and licensing please have a look at
