    I am processing a large number of files, I am opening both ENVI image files and regular IDL files. According to the manual, the ENVI_OPEN_FILE procedure does not actually use a file handle except when it is actually reading or writing a file. I am writing object style IDL opening and closing my IDL files in the same method. Why does my program die with the message it is running out if file handles???

    When this has happened to me, it has always meant that I have been opening files with the /get_lun keyword, but forgetting to free_lun when I am done with them.
