When you start IDL, the only change that IDL makes to the path variable is to make IDL's bin and necessary directories be set at the beginning of $PATH so that they are searched first. Before pointing fingers at IDL, it may be best to rule out that you have your path environment set up correctly outside of IDL. in other words, can you run your command 'gv m4_r_600_test_flag0_individual_outliers.eps' just fine when in a terminal window? Once you confirm that it works when you are outside of IDL, then launch IDL from the same terminal window and see if you still get an error.

If all else fails, you can always use SETENV (http://www.exelisvis.com/docs/SETENV.html) to change your path if you don't want to in the Terminal.
