Or, if you want to add more open windows in the future (hey, computer screens are getting
bigger all the time!) you could do:
nWin=4
winID=lonarr(nWin)
for i=0,nWin-1 do begin
window, /free
winID[i]=!d.window
endfor
...do stuff....
; plot to first window
wset, winID[0]
plot, .....
; plot to second window
wset, winID[1]
plot, .....
etc....
; done
for i=0,nWin-1 do wdelete, winID[i]
?
Increase nWin as required.
Using the above you could have additional windows open that you *don't* want destroyed
every time you rerun your code.
Or, even more simply, you could just do
!p.multi=[0,2,2]
and avoid the multiple windows altogether. :o)
