If you control the writing of output files, then I might suggest that
you use my (mid- or low-level) library routines to make IDL save
files. Since the library is a totally independent implementation of
save-file functionality, you don't have to worry about it changing
with new versions of IDL. Unfortunately it does not do compressed
files, or files with objects inside, if either of those are important
to you.
