On a DEC workstation, the IDL EASE-Tools ssmi_read procedure says the file doesn exist, but I know it does. What is wrong?
Users on DEC workstations may get the following error message from ssmi_read: % SSMI_READ: File foo does not exist This error may be coming from the DEC convention whereby a semi-colon and version number are considered part of the filename. Even if you enter “foo;1” you will get the error message, because the semi-colon will very likely have a special meaning to the operating system.
