Hello,
I am running IDL on a Unix machine remotely with no X-session
active. i.e using putty as my terminal.
To make my plots in IDL I am writing to the z-buffer and then
creating a png that I can then view in a browser. However,
my session in IDL is crashing when I use fsc_color from
Dave Fanning's library. See the simple example below.
IDL> set_plot,'z'
IDL> a=fsc_color('black')
% Compiled module: FSC_COLOR.
X connection to cass00:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
Is this me, or a feature of fsc_color.
When I enable an xsession via cgywin fsc_color works OK. It
looks like idl or fsc_color is trying to do something
with via X.
thanks, richard
