There will be an IDL User's meeting for astronomers on Monday, 2
November, 1992, 7:30 - 9:00 p.m. in Boston during the 2nd Annual
Astronomy Data Analysis and Software Systems (ADASS) meeting.  (Contact

will speak on recent developments and future plans for IDL.  The
remainder of the meeting will consist of short 5-10 minute informal
talks on applications of IDL in astronomy.  Please let me know if you
would like to volunteer to give a talk.  Possible topics include
astronomy software or data reduction packages in IDL, experiences with
DOS-IDL or Convex-IDL, real-time data acquisition with IDL, IDL
widgets, or a comparison of IDL and PV-WAVE.
