Hi IDL fans:
There must be others of you who sometimes need to work on IDL
remotely from home, via modem. I'd like to tap into the current
wisdom on the best way to handle this. I'm considering here
working with datasets that are quite large, so transferring them
and running IDL on my home computer wouldn't be feasible.
I currently have a classic Mac and use a tek4105 terminal emulator,
and display graphics using device 'tek'. This is OK (especially
considering I have a small screen and B/W only, anyway). I was
wondering what other options there would be, and also what works best for
the Windows PC users among you. Tektronix emulation?
X Windows? Linux/X Windows? Are there other devices besides
'X' and 'tek' which I could use to display on a PC or Mac?
I apologize if this post is somewhat off topic - I will summarize
e-mail responses I receive if there is interest. Thanks.
