I just remembered that Quinlan followed up ID3 with an enhancement in 1993
called C4.5, and published a book and C code to implement it (ISBN:
1558602380). If it's of any use, the code's home should be at
http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~quinlan but I'm having trouble reaching it. A
mirror and very nice tutorial are at
http://www.cs.uregina.ca/~dbd/cs831/notes/ml/dtrees/c4.5/tut orial.html

This code works only with text files as input and output, which might not be
at all helpful to getting to work through IDL.

Cheers,
