Your problem is this is NOT the way to write a BEGIN-END
block of code. In fact, you are forgetting the BEGIN and the END :-)

Are you SURE you want to be doing this in a batch file!?
Maybe there is an easier way. May I suggest a main-level
program. Then you don't have to jump through all these
&& $ hoops to get something done.

Cheers,

David

P.S. A main-level program is just like a batch file, except
it has an END at the end of it, and you compile it before you
run it. But all the variables are available to you at the main
IDL level, where it runs.

IDL> .run myprogram

Cheers,

David
