How to run .pro file in exelis IDL

Question

I'm trying to run a .pro file on IDL, I opened the file in IDL, but I cannot input anything at the consoleenter image description here I'm using IDL on ubuntu.

Is it because the environment isn't set up well? I also try to click the 'compile&run', it is not responding.

Answer 1

I can't see the end of the code, but assuming there is an end at the end of the code, you should be able to run your code with:;

IDL> .run mdot

Also, be careful, your file has not been saved.
