Oh, well then, Sebastian, here is a generic PrintName
procedure that works with *all* IDL-supplied objects
that can have a name:

PRO PrintName, object
object -> GetProperty, Name=theName
Print, theName
END

I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to figure out
what to do if the object *doesn't* have a name field. :-)

Cheers,

David
