Looks all right to me! (Wave 6)
: You might try READS.
I am using PV-Wave. READS must be an IDL function. What exactly
does it do?
READS reads the input from a string instead of a file:
READS, string, var1, var2 instead of READF, unit, var1, var2
This way you have a possibility to use the usual READing procedures
to interpret any strings that pass by.
