Re: other visualization packages - IDL/Matlab

[Joe McLean <joe.mclean@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Katherine,

I don't know if that there is a mail archive bug or what, but the url in the
message was good, the link it represented was bad.  You can find the same
information at
http://ferret.wrc.noaa.gov/Ferret/LAS/Documentation/manual/customize.html#Customizing_LAS_code

and scroll down to "Example: adding a new visualization program"

This will give you a start.  As you progress, please feel free to ask any
questions.

I believe there are Live Access Servers with IDL back ends, but I don't know
of any "How-to" documents specifically related to installing one.  The LAS
community would benefit from, and we would greatly appreciate any instruction,
comments, and problems that you can record as you do tackle this.  If you want
to put together a "How-to" as you do it, that would be great too.

Good Luck,

Joe
