I'm a bit uncertain on what exactly you base this on... E.g. searching for
"IDL library" on Google (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=IDL+library)
gives about 61000 hits, while "matlab library" gives "about 59700"
(http://www.google.com/search?q=matlab+library). Of course, I'm not pretending
that this is reflecting the number of library files, but your claim should be
backed up by some means.. And of course even the number of available distinct
.m versus .pro files won't tell you anything about the generality or
usefulness of those files.
