Hello All,

I have just started using IDL_IDLbridge for analysing my data. It
really speeds up things..X7 times for me...now I wanted to run the
program which has IDL bridges on a UNIX based cluster.

Thats when I am facing this problem. IDL_IDLBridge needs a X window
connection ,which we cannot have when using the cluster unless we
start an interactive job. Doing that, hinders our chances to make the
analysis much faster.

So I was just wondering why IDL_IDLbridge need a X window.... or is
there a method through which we can bypass this operation. any ideas?

Thank You
Sajan
