Yes, can you please post that (concat4dos) utility. Can you please be more specific
on adding a space to file names. Where? In the idl call or to the file name itself?

Also note that printing does not work under windows 95. This time it is a bug. The
way I deal with it as for dumping graphs on the printer is to copy the window to the
clipboard (alt-printscreen) then go into paintbrush, paste there and print from
there.

How do people like the imbedded editor? I usually kill those windows as they pop and
do most of the editing via emacs. The idl editor, I use for debugging.
