I know it gets off topic know, sorry. Since I have to do it at home
wihout IDL license I am bound to the timed demo mode in IDL. Is
writing to file permitted in this case? And, I am now close to
the solution of my problem using bash, awk and some perl code
(all done with merely any prior knowledege about these languages :-)

But thanks anyway to your suggestions,

Olaf
