: Yep, same thing on Sun Solaris 2.5:
: IDL> printf,0
: IDL> printf,1
: % PRINTF: File unit is not open: 1.

Same on IRIX5.3. As a point of note, we have -2 for stderr, -1 for stdout,
and finally, just for information,
IDL> print,!journal
0
(system variable !journal: "A read-only long-integer variable containing
the logical unit number of the file used for journal output" Online help)
So what is !journal set to undef W95?
