Because this topic is so active, last night I added a separate page to my
IDL web site

http://idl.tamu.edu/mactips.php

and started with a few simple Mac-related tips.

I will try to get additional topics on here as quickly as I can,
starting with emacs and other general tips about setting up an IDL
work environment.

If you have suggestions for additional topics, please drop me a line.

JD has summed up some the issues about the Mac user interface well. The
bottom line is that it works differently from other windowing systems
in several ways. While it is possible to make OS X work more like
X-Windows (for example), in the long run it is probably better to
become accustomed to, and take advantage of, the Mac way of doing things.

Cheers, Ken Bowman
