Well I guess I'll have to mention Octave, available from

http://www.che.wisc.edu/octave/

which includes binaries for cranky guys like me. It's supposedly more
Matlab-like than IDL-like (I haven't tried it).

Cheers,
Liam.

Yorick is also available. I've tried it out, and it's very IDL-like.
I think it also has some binary distributions for the Liam Gumleys of
the world. :-)

Uh-huh, I hope IDL isn't written in IDL !?

From the ANA web page:

"Installing ANA
You can try to install ANA on your computer if you have a C compiler."

Uh-huh.

I'll get back to my IDL programming now.

Cheers,
Liam.
