GDL 0.9.2 was delivered last night.
Not only we add functionalities and fix some bugs,
but also Marc did a great job on the optimization side.
We have very good benchmarks on multi-core,
as fast or faster than IDL on most entries in TIME_TEST3.
2 ways to compile: "configure" or "CMake"
If multicores, make -j N and compilation will be done is less that 5
mins.
Please report problems and bugs on SF.net
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnudatalanguage/

The adding of DIM keyword in mean, stddev, etc... old functions is a
big improvement, awaited for a long time.
The !null object added since 8.0 does not break any compatibility. You
still can test the returned number of elements, as before. But in case
of void return, your subsequent program will not be stopped by an
addressing error, allowing much lighter coding !

Yes, those came in 8.0. From the 8.0 "What's new":
"New DIMENSION keyword to KURTOSIS, MOMENT, STDDEV, MEAN, VARIANCE,
SKEWNESS."

No ! it is the first time I read about that !
Does those keywords appeared in IDL 8 ? I see nothing in online doc:
http://idlastro.gsfc.nasa.gov/idl_html_help/MEAN.html
(How to manage with old versions of IDL ? I have write codes
compatibles to IDL 6x, 7x and 8x, clearly this kind
of pseudo improvments is a pain for long term support.

We have serious progress, but feedback and help welcome

Does GDL have support for the new !null datatype (including WHERE's /
NULL keyword) or the /DIM keywords of MEAN, MOMENT, etc.?
How about postscript output?
