GDL - GNU Data Language, an IDL 6.0 compatible incremental compiler.
Version: 0.8
The netCDF file format is now fully supported (thanks to Christopher Lee).
Several library functions were added.
Along wiht some necessary internal changes to the compiler/interpreter
several bugs were fixed, output (formatted and unformatted) has
improved. See the ChangeLog file for details.
The installation procedure is now more straight forward (thanks to Craig
Markwardt). Please see the README file for more details and installation
instructions.
I also set up a simple
HOMEPAGE:
http://gnudatalanguage.sourceforge.net
DOWNLOAD:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnudatalanguage
For those who haven't heard of GDL before:
FEATURES:
Full syntax compatibility with IDL 6.0
All(!) IDL language elements are supported, including:
Pointers, Objects, Structs,
Arrays, System variables,
Common blocks, Assoc variables,
All operators, All data types,
_EXRA and _REF_EXTRA keywords...
The file input output system is fully implemented
(Exception: For formatted I/O the C() sub-codes are not supported yet)
netCDF files are fully supported.
Overall more than 120 library routines are implemented (among them the
EXECUTE function). For a list enter HELP,/LIB at the command prompt.
Graphical output is partially implemented. The PLOT command (along with
WINDOW, WDELETE, SET_PLOT, WSET, TVLCT) works (important keywords, some
!P system variable tags and multi-plots are supported)
for X windows and postscript output.
GUI (widgets) are not implemeted yet.
Check it out!
