    First of all, you're going to confuse yourself if the function is called CCSStreamoutFiles when actually it does a Stream In not Out.

    The problem is because you've used ~> with a disembodied property list (e.g. streamInKeys~>inFile). If the left hand side is a list, it is important whether you use -> or ~>. In the case of a disembodied property list, you must use ->, otherwise if you use ~> it will apply ~> to each member of the list and return a list of the results.

    So change all the streamInKeys~>... to streamInKeys->...

    Whilst I'm at it, I see you're calling "nino strmin". Not sure why, because it should be "pipo strmin". "nino" is a program to do "netlist in, netlist out" (although in practice it only does a netlist import). It is the underlying program behind File->Import->CDL in IC5141 (it used to be used for some other languages too).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
