Ken,
Thanks very much. A colleague is bringing up this issue with RSI, and we'll
let you (all) know of any positive developments. I wonder if IDL 5.5 also
kills the redirect.
Your work-around is, essentially, to write the program's output to a file. I'd
thought of doing so, but I don't want to go that route.
