I have the opposite problem since updating to Snow Leopard - IDL 7.0
was installed from admin and used to be able to be run from my normal
user login. Since the upgrade and despite reinstalling IDL, the
application launcher crashes when run from my login with a
segmentation error. IDL will run correctly from admin, and also from
the command line from my own login. IDL appears to be correctly
installed in the itt folder of Applications. Any help welcome - my
sysadmin is unable to fix the problem.
