(Already since December 15th, but I had no chance to post before.)

GDL - GNU Data Language, an IDL 6.0 compatible incremental compiler
(capable of running programs written in IDL).
Version: 0.8.7

NEWS:

OPLOT (thanks to Christopher Lee), REBIN, ...
There is now a screenshot at the homepage.


FEATURES:

*FULL* syntax compatibility with IDL 6.0

*ALL* IDL language elements are supported, including:
_EXRA, _REF_EXTRA and _STRICT_EXTRA keywords,
Objects, Pointers, Structs,
Common blocks, Assoc variables,
Arrays, System variables,
All operators, All data types...

Compiles on Linux and Mac OS X (10.2, 10.3, with g++ 3.3)

(Exception: For formatted I/O the C() sub-codes are not supported yet)

Most image file formats (jpeg, tiff, ...) are supported.

netCDF files are fully supported.
