* Gilles Duvert [2014-07-04 16:57:53 +0200]:
Those are tons of IDL script files. I doubt we can tell if a
particular script will fail or not, since it depends on how it is
used and the history. I mean, a script that makes nice plots may
pass for double precision data, and fail on integer data, a
tool using the cursor may crash only when the user clicks where
nobodoy ever would have thought clicking possible, etc...

I'd call such failures "bugs", either in GDL or in the scripts.

I think Ole was referring to scripts that are incompatible with GDL
by design (i.e., because they rely on some feature of proprietary IDL
that won't/can't be implemented in GDL).
