Path handling in different OSs?? [message #18694] Thu, 03 February 2000 00:00 Go to next message

Hi out there,

did anybody bother to write some helpers for handling pathnames under
different OSs in IDL (something like "path_to_os") or so? Something
that replaces "/" bei "\" or ":" and appends ":" under MAC if needed? Or
is there some implemented function in idl which allows accessing
directory structures under differing OSs? Just asking, if not, I'll
write it myself...

Thanks

Markus

The CDS library (ftp://sohoftp.nascom.nasa.gov/solarsoft/gen/idl/) has some
good path-manipulation routines. You should also check the IDL Astronomy
Library (http://idlastro.gsfc.nasa.gov/homepage.html)
