WEOF

This routine is obsolete and should not be used in new IDL code.

The WEOF procedure writes an end of file mark, sometimes called a tape mark, on the designated tape unit at the current position. WEOF is available only under VMS. The tape must be mounted as a foreign volume. See "VMS-Specific Information" in Chapter 8 of Application Programming.

Syntax

WEOF, Unit

Arguments

Unit

The magnetic tape unit on which the end of file mark is written. This argument must be a number between 0 and 9, and should not be confused with standard file Logical Unit Numbers (LUNs).
