I figured that out eventually :-) and now my plots look pretty similar
on the Mac and PC and in postscript and on the screen.

To make my code truly platform independent I would like to check what
platform I am running on at the start so then I can load the right
paths to my files, rather than having to change them by hand every
time I swap machine. Is there a command that will tell me whether I am
on Mac or PC from within IDL? Sure there's an easy way but I can't
find it on the web.

PS I had my tongue firmly in my cheek when referring to the "classic"
red/black colour theme - though it has been close to becoming the
default on my machine lately :-)
