I am using pidly, and i would like to transfer a variable from python into IDL

import pidly
traj = 'test.traj'
idl = pidly.IDL()
idl('trajfile = "{0}".format(traj)')

I just want to be able to use the variable that i have in python in an IDL command.

What is the output or result of your current code? Can you provide an example that would show whether or not you've coded it right? – sappjw Aug 06 '19 at 14:34
You may also want to try `idl('trajfile = "{0}"'.format(traj))` – sappjw Aug 06 '19 at 14:35
