Good-bye Window Command [message #73647]

Folks,

Between paying bills this morning and checking my e-mail
I realized I had forgotten one very important addition to
my new suite of graphics programs: a wrapper for the
WINDOW command.

A new program, FSC_DISPLAY, can be used to open a graphics
window in IDL graphics programs that are meant to work
identically on the display and in PostScript. Normally,
in such programs you have to "protect" the Window command:

IF (!D.Flags AND 256) NE 0 THEN Window, 3, XSIZE=400, YSIZE=400

Now, you can just call FSC_DISPLAY:

FSC_Display, 3, 400, 400, Color='gray'

Windows are automatically protected.

You can find the program here:

Cheers,

David
