How to use IDL in a cronjob? [message #87719]

Hello,

I have a bunch of cronjobs that run various tests daily. A shell script
is invoked that does all the heavy lifting, invoking various compiled
executables.

What I would like to do is to add an additional step to my script that
invokes IDL to plot the results of those tests.

I have an IDL batch file that I can invoke at the IDL prompt that
generates the plots.

But how do I invoke that batch file at the OS prompt in a
non-interactive shell process?

Thanks for any info.

cheers,

paulv
