I'm having problems plotting maps from O to an O metafile. I am using the plot command in O which allows a model to be plotted, but as soon as I wish to plot a map as well I get the following errors occur:-

 plot> futsr: error writing to file

which continues for the best part of a minute and terminates with :-

 plot> futsr: error writing to file
 sfe: bad isam argument
 apparent state: unit 1 named o_002.plt
 lately writing sequential formatted external IO

After which O crashes killing the processes associated with it so that the whole setup has to be repeated.

Plot_setup was used prior to attempting to plot, but even omitting this command the same errors occured.

This is rather puzzling as I have used this plotting successfully recently with both a model and a map. The version of O is 5.10 and hasen't changed since my previous success.
