Liam--

You're right this is an interesting development. This may help get
more IDL applications distributed, which I'm sure is the goal of RSI.
But the virtual machine is significantly less interesting to me on
account of the fact that EXECUTE() is disabled:

http://www.rsinc.com/idl/idlvm_faq.asp#runtime

There are a couple of key places in my code where EXECUTE() is
integral to the operation of the algorithm, and those would not
transfer over to the IDL VM.
