IDLWAVE !path variable [message #37664] Sat, 10 January 2004 15:29

Hello,

I am running Debian Linux and have IDLWAVE version 5.2. I have my
routines in /home/karthik/IDL_FILES/pro and have to issue this command
every time:
!path=!path+':/home/karthik/IDL_FILES/pro'
Is there a way to add path information to IDLWAVE permanently?

Here are the measures I took before posting this question:
a) In the shell I issued the command:
[karthik] ~> ./idlwave_catalog karthik
b) I messed with the files in the .idlwave dir. and edited the
idlpath.el file to include this line :
("/home/karthik/IDL_FILES/pro/")
c) I set idlwave-auto-write-paths to 't' in my .emacs file.
d) In the IDL shell (under Emacs) I issued the command
!path=!path+':/......etc' and logged out and then logged in again.
e) I added path information in .idlde file

I still have no luck. The routines in the /home/karthik/IDL_FILES/pro
have tab completion, but I get the following error until I set the !path
variable:

IDL> examine_image_value
% Attempt to call undefined procedure/function: 'EXAMINE_IMAGE_VALUE'.

Thanks in advance,

Karthik.
