Yeah, I think that was it. ;-)

Uh, well, have you tried MPI_PLOT? That makes pretty good
plots and the innards are written as objects, although the
outward appearance has been disguised so the riff-raft isn't
put off.

I'm not trying to offend JD here, but the IDLDE does
a pretty good job of keeping projects together, although
it takes a bit of getting used to. I use it to manage all
of my big projects. And, of course, there is always that
wonderful EMACS editor with the IDL-WAVE mode that everyone
raves about. I'd try that if I wasn't too old to learn
something new. :-)

Cheers,

David
