Whoops! I see I used the archaic STR_SEP routine in
that program. That is an obsolete IDL routine that I
still have on my path for historical reasons. Better
to use the modern STRSPLIT function:

;----------------------------------------------------------- -------
PRO Tester
Help, Calls=callStack
thisRoutine = (StrSplit(StrCompress(callStack[0])," ", /Extract))[0]
callingRoutine = (StrSplit(StrCompress(callStack[1])," ", /Extract))[0]
Print, 'In ' + thisRoutine + ' which is called by ' + callingRoutine +
'.'
thisRoutine = StrLowCase(thisRoutine) + '.pro'
thePath = File_Which(thisRoutine, /Include_Current)
thePath = StrMid(thePath, 0, StrPos(thepath, thisRoutine))
Print, 'The default path to ' + thisRoutine + ' is: ' + thePath
END
;----------------------------------------------------------- -------

Cheers,

David
