Thanks for the replies. We have found that the following works (on our
DEC Alpha, anyway)
In IDL: open the file with OPENW,unit,'filename',/segmented & WRITEU,data
Then in FORTRAN,
OPEN(UNIT=15,FILE='filename',STATUS='OLD',READONLY,
1 access='sequential',form='unformatted')
READ(15) DATA
where DATA has been defined ahead of time, of course.
