Hi Lorenzo,

I'm running into a similar issue, and was trying to start another IDL
vm session using SPAWN with the UNIT keyword. I could get the update
to work, but could not figure out how to kill the window, as i can't
get the lun pipe to work properly nor will free_lun work to stop the
idl process. But perhaps someone else has some insight on using this
method...
