Hi All,
I've just submitted a request to RSI that they consider incorporating
an
HTTP/FTP client into the core of IDL.
And surprise, apparently I'm the very first to request this!!
Now I know there's more than a few folk out there who valiantly use
the
Socket command to access data and or pages on the 'net. How about
sending off an email to support@rsinc.com, adding your support for
these
two requests?
Make sure you say *why* you'd like to see a nice, full implementation
of http/ftp in IDL, how you'd use it, and how many IDL/ENVI users in
your facility would be keen to use it.
Here are the official names of the Requests in RSI's system :-
C.R.I.D. #39054 (" REQUEST: Add To IDL A Library Of HTTP Client
Functions")
and C.R.I.D. #39055 (" REQUEST: Add To IDL A Library Of FTP Client
Functions").
Cheers,
