I wonder if you think the current RSI IDL version progression is any
less of a nightmare? From a support standpoint it pretty much blows.
I think every procedure in the IDL manual should have a
version-compatibility matrix.

Believe me, I'd be using Build 23.1 if it was open-source. I would
*prefer* IDL to be open source.
