Hi Jess,

I don't know why including the subdirectories using "+" does not work
when setting !path within IDL. It sure works when you set the IDL_PATH
environment variable in your .bashrc / (.cshrc / .login / .profile ...
whatever your shell and configuration file are).

At my Linux PC something like

setenv IDL_PATH ${IDL_PATH}:+/path_to_somewhere

did in fact include all subdirectories below /path_to_somewhere

Or, following your example,

setenv IDL_PATH
"<IDL_DEFAULT>":$RSI_DIR/astro_lib/pro:$RSI_DIR/simul_package/v4.3.2_
pros:+/pkg/merlin/idl/idl_6.2/lib

should also actually work.

But still, the open question is why <IDL_DEFAULT> does not include the
subdirectories of the IDL installation. This I can't tell.

Cheers,

Peter
