Hello,So, I write a wide range of iraf cl scripts and one thing I often do is use hselect to create file lists. So something like:[code:1:1a2b708aa5]hselect *.fits $I, expr="imagetyp == 'object'" > object_list
[/code:1:1a2b708aa5]
However, if I ever run the script again, the cl whines that it can't write to the file object_list, because it already exists.Any way to make the darn CL just overwrite on a > like any unix script would? Perhaps some other character other than >... or whatever? I know in tcsh there's some noclobber variable that has to be set to [i:1a2b708aa5]prevent[/i:1a2b708aa5] overwriting... perhaps there's some analogous clobber variable in IRAF? Marcos

Just set the 'clobber' CL variable, e.g.cl> show clobber
no
cl> type hlib$motd > foobar
cl> type hlib$motd > foobar
ERROR: cannot open `foobar' for writing
cl> reset clobber = yes
cl> type hlib$motd > foobarThere is an analogous 'imclobber' var. Use both with care.-Mike
