Hi Dr. Werner,
   I'm doing the simulation of cells. In such case, one group is a snapshot
at a single time point of the system. As such, I will have tens of
thousands of such groups in a file; or maybe multiple files, each file
contains thousands of groups. Also, I want to generate the video from these
snapshots using IDL. Would your suggestion still be the reasonable approach
or should I do in a different way? . Thank you!

Bests,
Tuan
