Hi all,

I am new to IDL and also new to Linux. But recently, I need to deal
with some data which could only be read by IDL software in Linux
platform. So I started handling it.

I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and IDL 7.0.

But something wired happened. I cannot save .pro file through IDL
workbench. I can do the command line mode, however. But I really want
to use the workbench.

So I am wondering whether anyone met the same problem before.

Thanks in advance,
Tongmu

There appears to be more going on here. See this post:

There may be other problems with Ubuntu 9.10 as well.

From the command line, try running the following line in the directory
you want to save to:
sudo chmod a+w .

Which will give you write permissions to the folder if you don't have
them.

My guess is that you do not have permission to write either the file
or the directory where you want it to be.
