Re: write_table

Hi users,

I have some problems with str_write.
To understand what happened, I just modified the example (I put alist
= [/b, a, c, d, f/] instead of alist = [/a, b, c, d, f/]):

a = (/111, 222, 333, 444/)
 b = (/1.1, 2.2, 3.3/)
 c = (/"a", "b", "c"/)
 d = (/11h, 22h/)
 f = (/11l, 22l, 33l, 44l, 55l, 66l/)

 alist = [/b, a, c, d, f/]
 header = (/"--------------------------------", \
            "This is a file header", \
            "--------------------------------"/)
 footer = (/"--------------------------------", \
            "This is a file footer", \
            "--------------------------------"/)

 hlist = [/header/]
 flist = [/footer/]

 str_write("list.txt", "w", hlist, "%s ")
 str_write("list.txt", "a", alist, "%16.2f%d%s%d%ld")
 str_write("list.txt", "a", flist, "%s ")

Which produce:

--------------------------------
This is a file header
--------------------------------
            1.10111a1111
             2.20 222 b 22 22
             3.30 333 c
        33
                                444
           44

             55

             66
--------------------------------
This is a file footer
--------------------------------

What's wrong with the first line??

Thank you,
Virginie
