In my last job, I did alot of work with college students needing to
learn IDL to do their class work. After reading the comments on this
newsgroup I started writing some of my methods down that I used to get
these students going.
There are two list I started, although they are incomplete right now.
One list is for getting started and the other is for the students asking
how to do this better, which were few and far between.
