On 5/4/99, Nigel Wade posted information about reading Matlab files in IDL:

This is becoming a regular request so I have put my routine up on our FTP
server.

Check out ftp://ion.le.ac.uk/idl/
and have a look at the file README.load_mat_data

This may help you out.

However I don't know of any way to read an IDL save file in Matlab. If you
want a platform-independent data format, try netCDF (supported by Matlab and
IDL).
