Will any one know the code to cause PRINTF to advance to a new page for
output to file?
Can't find it in the documentation.
Thanks in advance,
MC

"feature" IDL uses the FORTRAN idiom for format statements which says
essential that if there is a "repeat count group" that's as far back as we
go when we need to re-use elements in the format statement. It's sort of
documented in the help files.

Just in case you are wondering, this produces the same odd behaviour
for
aa = indgen(3, 2)
