GDL - GNU Data Language, an IDL 6.0 compatible incremental compiler.
Version: 0.8.2
now GDL compiles "out of the box" on Mac OS X (10.3, with g++ 3.3).
Several image file formats (jpeg, tiff, ...) are supported.
Partial support for HDF is now included.
HOMEPAGE:
http://gnudatalanguage.sourceforge.net
DOWNLOAD:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnudatalanguage/
Gaurav Khanna provides binaries for Mac OS X on his HPC page:
http://hpc.sourceforge.net
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 150 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.
A GUI (widgets) is not implemeted yet.
Check it out!
