Dear Ulf-Dietrich,

I believe you are looking for something like our
get_profile_path function

http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/get_profile_path.tar.gz
or as idl binary
http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/get_profile_path.sav

pro example
restore,get_profile_path()+'example1.sav'
plot,x,y
end

Please have look for further routines and licensing at
http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_lib_intro. html

best regards

Reimar
