If you have questions about a routine, you can type,
for example, something like this:

IDL> ? Map_Set

The on-line help stays up on my machine constantly.
In fact, it's why I paid all that money for a second
monitor. :-)

Cheers,

David

To take up the whole window, set POSITION=[0,0,1,1] on the MAP_SET
command.

I'd try the NOBORDER keyword in Map_Set. :-)
