    An IDL user has asked the following question: I upgraded to 8.5 earlier this year (License ID: 5500131) as I am now running OS X Yosemite (10.10) and a data processing program I used previously not longer works. This is an old program (circa early 2000s) that reads binary data files from an older satellite and produces a save set of the data. When I use the program in the present idl version, the data it produces is garbage. It appears to be a problem with reading the binary file.

    It is possible that issue might caused by ENDIAN (the byte order) being different on this new system. Depending on your code, you may be able use the SWAP_ENDIAN routine to address this issue: https://www.harrisgeospatial.com/docs/SWAP_ENDIAN.html
