[FLASH-USERS] I too have trouble with fidlr3.0 and xflash

[Justin Parsons]

Hello

I'm having trouble running xflash as packaged with FLASH3,3.1 and 3.1.1a.
This is a new problem since upgrading to Ubuntu 8.10.  While running 8.04 I
never came across this problem.  I know what the bone-headed solution is,
but does anyone have any ideas as to what the real problem is?  Below is a
chunk of the error IDL outputs,

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

IDL> xflash3

                                          /nonexclusive, $
                                           ^
% Syntax error.
  At: /home/jus-sn/research/bowShock/FLASH3.1.1a/tools/fidlr3.0/xflash3.pro,
Line 216

fstartSuffix = cw_field(suf_base, title = 'suffix: ', value = '1', $
                                         ^
% Syntax error.

Line 1770

fendSuffix   = cw_field(suf_base, title = 'to', value = '1', $
                                         ^
% Syntax error.
  At: /home/jus-sn/research/bowShock/FLASH3.1.1a/tools/fidlr3.0/xflash3.pro,
Line 1772

fstep        = cw_field(suf_base, title = '   step', value = '1', $
                                         ^

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

And it goes on giving similar errors for other functions with the cw_
prefix.  Any help is appreciated!

Cheers,
