Hi Brian,
I usually include wildcards in my search when I am not sure what I am
looking for. I "think" "write_png" is inside "write_image.pro" in
your /lib and it takes the 'png' keyword for writing PNG files and it
will return filename.png if keyword is png, filename.gif if keyword is
gif etc. I haven't had a reason to use these functions, but it looks
like the above is the case..
Good luck,
~rk

RK,
I just looked into this at your suggestion and write_image.pro is just
a wrapper for write_png, write_gif and the other writes.
