I'm developing a tool for use in an application (and on workstation)
that doesn't otherwise use idl so I'm hoping to run it in the idl
virtual machine.

Running it in normal fully interactive idl it works fine but not in
vm. I figured out that this is because the vm comes up in the location
of the .sav file as its current working directory.

Is there an easy way to notify the vm application of the location it
is being started from without the user having to type in
big_long_convoluted_path_name at some point?

And a related question...

Is there a way to automatically generate a mouse click to get past the
vm startup screen? (again, this is all linux/unix so a non portable
solution is ok)
The application mentioned above is semi-interactive and a human is in
the loop, but we have a couple of fully automated processing pipelines
(multiple, independent instances may be running, each at its own rate)
where we would like to use idl but also need to keep costs under
control.

Has anyone ever translated their documentation about licensing into
english?
