Hi,

is there anybody who can tell me how to start IDL from a UNIX script?

IDL non-interactive works fine if I input at prompt:

idl mycommands.pro

but this instruction inside a script gives me the following error
message:

idl: 0402-021 Cannot run the command as specified.

Thanks in advance for any hint.
Roberto

I use a similar approach with several WWW-based data systems that
invoke perl scripts via a HTML form. The perl script executes
IDL in batch mode, runs a IDL routine to make a plot of the
selected parameters, and writes the results to a GIF.

The output is then display on the WWW browser as a HTML document
with an inline GIF image.

Examples of various perl programs that use IDL on the web
and the corresponding HTML forms are available via the following
