IDL language I have studied for over two years, and it remains the tool I often employ now.

[1]    At the beginning of learning, I had found some documents in Chinese for self-learning online. It is good for newbie, leading to understand its routines and employ.

[2]   Next step, I read the IDL Help directly for more details, it should be most serious for users.

[3]   With the increasing of personal demand, above could both not satisfy me. And some figures look nice and professional, I also want to created them in my papers. So, I found a personal webpage on IDL programming, the content in it is what I need now. Also, lots of students or researchers need new resources to study.

The website name is Coyote's Guide to IDLProgramming, you can find it via google its name.

Lots of examples are available whenever,and the owner(Dr. Fanning) of this website always keeps updating.

If you have any question, you can send it via E-mail to Dr. Fanning. I have sent my problems, and he answered as possible as he can.
