all this and more is in /data/psrdata/usr4/lutzkelker/APJsourcecode/createProbForD.pro :
creating histogram with coyote cghistoplot and with a simple plot object
decoding systime() into a string of yyyyMOdd-HHmi for filename writeout with date&time embedded
but note that the function call may need to be all lowercase!!!!!Also note that above program now calls the function which resides in the path at /usr/share/astro/idlshare/locallib/getyyyymoddhhmi.pro , and that it is called in main as: mydatimestring=getyyyymoddhhmi(). And furthermore that one can test for existence of a routine in path by typing from command line: print, file_which(‘getyyyymoddhhmi.pro’)
writing out a postscript from an old style plot procedure and from an already-generated plot object (extremely easy!)
