Crikey, Dave, don't be so hard on yourself. You're making me feel bad. I posted my
comments to the newsgroup rather than private email because a) my "reply-all" didn't seem
to give me a valid email for your post and b) I figured your ego could take it. :o)

I mean, you *are* the same David Fanning that runs the "Coyote's Guide to IDL Programming"
website, right? If not, my profuse apologies. :oD

And, anyway, as you pointed out in another followup the list of greek letter octal values
are different for the different !D.NAME cases -- which I didn't notice -- so my argument
falls apart. *Now* who needs to get over their embarrassment? :o/

cheers,

paulv
