Rick,

you may be onto something here...

Paolo what do you get from typing "limit" at a terminal prompt?

I ran "ulimit" which unsets the limit but forgot to look at the limit
beforehand (oops)

[balarsen@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
> limit
cputime      unlimited
filesize     unlimited
datasize     6144 kbytes
stacksize    8192 kbytes
coredumpsize 0 kbytes
memoryuse    unlimited
descriptors  256
memorylocked unlimited
maxproc      266

However I had the same IDL result, error on array d.

Yes I have 4GB of RAM in my macbook pro.

Cheers,

Brian
