    Encounter - working with ILM

    Thanks! it works! BTW, i don't have all 3 subdirs of ILM, i have only ilm_data (i create it post route) - make sense? and regarding the definitions in env.cong : in addition to "rda_Input(ui_ilmdir)" i have there rda_Input(ui_ilmlist) and rda_Input(ui_ilmspef), should i define these as well?
