Hi!

So I guess I need to give up on remote TV graphics, using a remote Windows machine to ssh into to an AOC Linux machine.

Pat Palmer suggested a workaround writing the PL file to EPS (which I could then transfer to my Windows machine), but the OUTFILE that I specified (VGR-TEST.EPS) ends up in a /tmp directory that I can’t reach with my remote software (probably because I don’t understand the difference between nm-7005 and nmpost023 – I can get to the former, but not the latter).  My question is, how can I get OUTFILE to write to my current directory?  The fully qualified name gets a ‘string size’ error (outfile '/lustre/aoc/observers/nm-7005/data/VGR1/14B-292_sb30006555_1.57039.57904416666/ASDMBinary/VGR-TEST.EPS')
 

Thanks for any suggestions,

Bob Gray
