command line args should work in the vm (at least I think it does ;^)
Of course, you can't just pass the arguments, you have to use -args
when you call idl:
idl -vm=test_sav.sav -args 5 6
Remember, also, that the args are passed as a string array(!), so your
code will fail there, too. Perhaps:
PRO test_sav
;; this might help you debug it, too:
catch, theError
if theError ne 0 then begin
catch, /CANCEL
void = error_message()
return, 0
endif
cla = command_line_args(count = count)
a = FIX(cla[0])
b = FIX(cla[1])
c = a + b
header = string(c)
file = filepath('test.txt', root_dir='d:')
OpenW, lun3, file, /Get_Lun
PrintF, lun3, header
Free_Lun, lun3
END
