The IDL FAQ is posted on or about the 20th of each month.
Only the plain text version of the FAQ is posted to the group.
Version 3.3 of the IDL FAQ is contained in the next post.
There are several changes from the FAQ posted last month,
these are noted in the Changes section near the front of the FAQ.
I would like to clean up some of the older FAQ entries. I am
not sure what is obsolete and what should be retained so will
not drop any entries unless one or more responses indicate that
that they should be dropped. Some entries could be brought more
up to date and I would appreciate submissions that could be used
for this purpose from users that work in areas covered by the FAQ.
Also if anyone would like to expand on any of the FAQ topics by
setting up a World Wide Web page on that topic I would be happy to
reference that page. Such page references will help keep the FAQ
size from growing too quickly.
The HTML version of the IDL FAQ makes it more easily accessable
on the World Wide Web (WWW). If you are not familiar with the
WWW or WWW browsers you are missing a lot and should try to
obtain the needed software. A number of browsers are available free.
NCSA (National Center for Supercomputing Applications) mosaic may
be obtained from the anonymous ftp site
ftp.ncsa.uiuc.edu in directory /Mosaic
It is available for Unix workstations, PC Windows, and Macs. The one
requirement is a good connection to the internet.
Netscape is another good web browser (that's what I use) and may be
picked up from the net also.
