Hi,
My name is Doug. I live in Golden, Colorado, and work in Denver. My
typical use of IDL is to create some graph for inclusion in a
scientific paper. I don't do to much with it otherwise. IDL is one
of a suite of programs that I use for creating graphical display.
Others include Mathematica, Matlab, and SPLUS.
David, as a lurker I routinely look for your postings in this
newsgroup.
Although there is not much I can do to reward you for your work, let me
say that I do appreciate the time you take to post informative messages.
I bought the first edition of your book, IDL Programming Techniques,
primarily based on the quality of your posts to this newsgroup.
Anyway, here is my contribution to your efforts: All, if your are an
occasional user of IDL, in my opinion, the best reference is David
Fanning's book, IDL Programming Techniques.
Hope this is helpful.
Regards,
Doug
