OS errmsg:

I am running like:
task $iden=/home/cs/iden.cl
iden

Is your iden.cl a procedure script or simply a list of commands you would have run with the "cl

my iden.cl file:

noao.onedspec
unlearn identify
iden ("FeAr_4_Grism_7_2015_11_15_yk150024bfap1.0001.fits",
"INDEF", "INDEF", section="middle line", database="database",
coordlist="linelists$idhenear.dat", units="", nsum="10", match=10.,
maxfeatures=50, zwidth=100., ftype="emission", fwidth=4., cradius=5.,
threshold=0., minsep=2., function="spline3", order=1, sample="*", niterate=0,
low_reject=3., high_reject=3., grow=0., autowrite=no, graphics="stdgraph",
cursor="", aidpars="")

My iden.cl file:
noao.onedspec
unlearn identify

iden ("FeAr_4_Grism_7_2015_11_15_yk150024bfap1.0001.fits",
"INDEF", "INDEF", section="middle line", database="database",

My first post was somehow truncated ...... In it I mentioned that the error refers to a problem in reading the script and asked about permissions and path issues, but it appears that you're simply using the abbreviated 'iden' for the IDENTIFY task in a task you just declared also called 'iden'. Try using "identify (....)" within your script.

It worked with identify....
Thanks alot!!!!
