It doesn't happen from the IDL workbench or the second time I type it at the command line. I don't think there is anything relevant in my startup file, and I first noticed the problem when typing CGPS_OPEN. Anyone have any ideas what might be going on?

Hi,
I've tried this on win with 8.4.1 and did not get this problem:

Run startup pro. File = C:\Users\Helder\IDLWorkspace83\HelderStartup.pro
turn off !DEBUG_PROCESS_EVENTS
finish starup pro
IDL> window, /free
IDL>

[My startup "only" turns off !debug_process_events]

IDL> !version
{
"ARCH": "x86_64",
"OS": "Win32",
"OS_FAMILY": "Windows",
"OS_NAME": "Microsoft Windows",
"RELEASE": "8.4.1",
"BUILD_DATE": "Feb 17 2015",
"MEMORY_BITS": 64,
"FILE_OFFSET_BITS": 64
}

Hope it helps...
Cheers,
Helder
