Saving IDL History Across Sessions... [message #43909] Tue, 03 May 2005 20:26 Go to next message

Hi All,

Does anybody have any clever kludge for saving your IDL history across
sessions, such that the next time you start IDL it can recall commands
that had been entered prior to exiting the previous IDL session? The
possibility of this looks bleak since it looks like you can't really
futz with the recall buffer in IDL... once you log on it starts fresh.
But just in case somebody had ever considered this and found it
impossible, well, then I could just go to bed and never worry about it
ever again.

Best -Tim.

Oh, crud. I totally forgot about the non-disclosure. (Can you see why
I'm not a beta tester very often.) Sigh.

Oh, oh. Better read that beta agreement again, Mike.
When I've made this mistake in the past, RSI hasn't liked
it too much. :-)

Cheers,

Sorry if I'm getting to this conversation late, but this will be a
feature of IDL 6.2, but it will be a few months before it's out.
