Hi everyone,
We are considering the NT version of IDL (5.0 i guess) and have
been using UNIX Solaris IDL 4.x for a couple of years.
What problems passing code back and forth between UNIX and PC
IDL will there be? What about byte swapping on PC's?
I've heard about like length limitations on pathnames/filenames.
The bottom line is I don't want to have two versions of essentially
the same code for each platform just to deal with porting issues.
Also any comments on IDL NT performance would be appreciated. We plan
on a 266 MHz PII with 128 MB RAM and SCSI2 drives.
It's just too bad an IDL/ENVI license will cost more than the PC. That
seems warped to me.
Thanks,
Scott
