Hi Tim,

But if your routine is called 'fred' and you save it in a file called
fred.idl.pro, when you call fred, IDL will be looking for fred.pro...
and therefore not find it.

If I had this problem, I'd either just put the batch files in their own
directory which tells what they are (maybe called 'batch'), or tag the
batch files and leave the rest alone (although probably better with a
'_' separator than a '.', for the reason above. You can also use a file
with no extension to indicate a batch file - that's fine on UNIX; not
ideal on Windows.

regards,
Greg
