Description-en: Low-level astronomy software for GDL
The IDL Astronomy Users Library is a central repository for low-level
astronomy software written in the GNU Data Language (GDL).
The library is not meant to be an integrated package, but rather is a
collection of procedures from which users can pick and choose (and possibly
modify) for their own use. Submitted procedures are given a cursory testing,
but are basically stored in the library as submitted.
.
The library was originally written for the commercial IDL interpreter, but
large parts are usable with the GDL interpreter as well. Other names for the
libraries are "astron" and "idlastro".
