OK, here is the problem. Here is my pared down code:

image = dist(200)
w = window(dimensions=[400,400])
img = image(image, /current)
END

This code when compiled always throws a syntax error
on the image command.

IDL> .compile -v 'C:\IDL\default\junk.pro'

img = image(image, /current)
^
% Syntax error.
At: C:\IDL\default\junk.pro, Line 3
% 1 Compilation error(s) in module $MAIN$.

What is *that* about!? Remove the CURRENT keyword
and the program compiles, although the image never
shows up anywhere!

Sheesh. Are you sure it's not Friday!?

Cheers,

David
