Standard part of IDL, yes, but aren't they allocated from the windows
server memory, and thus aren't available without one? I only find them
mentioned in the X device section of the manuals. Trying to create one
just now with my X-server shut down gives "X connection to ... broken
(explicit kill or server shutdown)". (IDL 6.0.3 (hp-ux hp_pa m64),
displaying on a PC running X-Win32 (which I shut down for this
experiment.)

(Maybe the WIN device provides them too, and has them always present?
I haven't tried it with other devices.)
