How can I pass the piped output (LUN) to READ_BMP, READ_GIF, READ_TIFF?
These procedures take file names as inputs, not LUNs. Is there a way
around this?

Why did RSI not make all I/O routines take either one flavor or all
flavors: file name string or LUN? LUNs would make IDL much easier to
hack.

Thanks,
