Uh, do you mean *with* or *without* my new IDL book?

Seriously, it you really mean "stand alone" applications,
then neither IDL or PV-Wave is going to do you any good.
Both require a license to run. MatLab is the only one of
the three that can generate stand-alone C code, although
I hear that it is not always such great code and there are
some limitations.

I personally think IDL is the cat's meow. At least *most*
of the time. :-)

Cheers,

David
