I started by using the IDL Handi-guide (there is a PDF of the handi-guide in
the "docs" directory in the IDL install directory) and an old version of
David Fanning's IDL book. The handi-guide helped me get an idea of the
functions and procedures that were available and the online help (enter "?"
on the command line) gave me the details. David maintains a website with
tips, tricks, and example code at http://www.dfanning.com/index.html

First, how long will the project last? It takes time to learn IDL from
scratch, even if you do get sample code. Is it worth for you trying to
learn a new language to complete a single project?
