how to ensure overwriting of eps graphics files? [message #53397]

Ah, the never-ending challenges of working in IDL. I just discovered a
little while ago, while continuing to develop code for my
dissertation, that IDL will write a new postscript file if none
exists. Great. But in the process of debugging, setting reasonable
ranges for plotting, adding and removing items from various plots,
etc, I've stumbled upon an odd behavior whereby IDL is not overwriting
existing eps files with the updated plots. (I discovered this because
I changed something that altered which of the plots gets overwritten
based on the analysis.)

Is there a way to force IDL to overwrite an existing graphics file
every time?
