converting VMS idl files to UNIX pvwave [message #491]

I have a data file that was created by an idl procedure on a VAX
system. I need to read the data in a pvwave procedure on a
UNIX system. The problem seems to be that the VAX uses records
and has a header at the top of the file that explains the records

My UNIX system merely reads the first byte with the assumption that
this is the desired data. If you have done this before, I would
appreciate any hits you could give. I need to remove the header,
but I also need to know the record lengths. THANKS.
