I have an old IUE startup file that defines !IUER this way.

location = '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/'
defsysv,'!iuer',{dat:location + 'iuelib/dat/', $
exe:location + 'iuelib/exe/', $
inf:location + 'iuelib/inf/', $
expr:location + 'experimental/', $
mlog:location + 'database/mergelog/', $
kandp:location + 'database/kandp/', $
stds:'/opt/local/src/iue/iueatlas/stdstars/', $
database:location + 'database/mergelog/:' + location
+ $
'database/kurucz/:'+location+'database/copern/'}

so that it is a structure where each tag is a scalar string giving a
directory name (e.g. where the data files are located, where the
experimental procedures are located, where the standard star library
is located, etc.)

IDL> help,/str,!iuer
** Structure <1f8828>, 8 tags, length=128, data length=128, refs=2:
DAT STRING '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/iuelib/
dat'...
EXE STRING '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/iuelib/
exe'...
INF STRING '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/iuelib/
inf'...
EXPR STRING '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/
experiment'...
MLOG STRING '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/database/
m'...
KANDP STRING '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/database/
k'...
STDS STRING '/opt/local/src/iue/iueatlas/stdstars/'
DATABASE STRING '/stis0/data31/landsman/rdaf/database/
m'...

I haven't actually used the IUE software (http://archive.stsci.edu/iue/
iuedac.html) for about 4 years, so no guarantees... --Wayne
