I don’t know whether or not this will help. My ferret scripts often do some math, then plot a graph, then I make a gif of that graph using the FRAME command. With the last couple of versions of ferret, ferret crashes at that point, sometimes with a not very informative error message. On faster machines, the graph is still being plotted when ferret is trying to grab a snapshot of the frame. This can be solved by slowing things down with a “sleep” command spawned out to the operating system as shown below. It is hokey, but it works. ..ferret math percolating along… sp sleep 0.5 frame/file=mygif/format=gif … Or maybe your problems are elsewhere!
