> Does anybody out there know of a book that is easy to use and teaches > basics of idl usage. I don't know of any third-party book on IDL (does anyone else?). However you can purchase training manuals from RSI. The appropriate volume would probably be "Learning IDL - An Interactive Training Course". I found it quite useful in getting up to speed. It costs about $35 US. Send email to info@rsinc.com and they should be able to help you out. Cheers, Liam.
