The Coyote Library is an Open Source programming project, hosted at https://github.com/idl-coyote/coyote. Programs in the Coyote Library are updated frequently and new programs are added continuously. It is extremely important that you keep up with recent changes if you expect to work with the Coyote Library and all of the other IDL programs in the world that use the Coyote Library. Please update your library every time you think of it! You can find the latest version of the Coyote Library at this location: https://wwww.idlcoyote.com/programs/coyoteprograms.zip Or, in the Download section here: https://github.com/idl-coyote/coyote/archive/master.zip The Coyote Library evolved from work David Fanning was doing teaching IDL courses and answering IDL questions on the IDL newsgroup. It is meant to be a well-documented library that demonstrates how to write solid (dare we say eloquent) IDL programs that are easy to maintain and extend. You can learn more about these programs and about IDL programming in general at David's web page, Coyote's Guide to IDL Programming. https://www.idlcoyote.com/ PROGRAMS RENAMED: Note that in February 2011 a great many Coyote Library programs were renamed to start with the letter "cg" for Coyote Graphics. The old programs didn't go away, they simply moved to the "retired" sub-directory in the Coyote Library. If you want to use them, all you need to is add the Coyote Library and all its sub-directories to your IDL path. (Normally this is done by putting a check mark in front of the directory if you set your path with the IDL workbench, or by adding a + sign to the name of the directory in an IDL start-up file.) Further development, however, had stopped for "retired" programs and will only go forward on the renamed Coyote Library programs. This means you will *probably* want to start using the new names in your programs. Most of the names are self-explanatory. A few are not. Here are some common programs with their name changes on the right: CTLoad -> cgLoadCT FSC_Color -> cgColor LoadData -> cgDemoData TVInfo -> cgImageInfo TVImage -> cgImage TVRead -> cgSnapshot AUTHOR: David W.
