Works for me. Thanks for doing the leg work. :-)

Generally, when I have to open these old programs up for
some reason, I retire them, convert the documentation to
IDL-Doc style, and reincarnate them with a "cg" prefix
to mark them as a Coyote Library routine. I'll do that
with this one as well, so it might take a day or so
to get back into the Library.

Cheers,

David
