Perhaps Anaconda would be best for an easy to install environment and much
of the commonly used scientific computing tools?

As for PyNIO, due to licensing issues, it isn't installable through pip or
easy_install. If you go to their website and create a free account, you can
get an installer that would work fine out of the box, but I have never
tried to install PyNIO in an Anaconda environment.

As for "reading" IDL from python, no such thing exists AFAIK. I have come
across this tool: https://code.google.com/p/i2py/. I have never used it
(luckily), so I can't vouch for its usefulness. The goal of i2py is not to
be a one-to-one converter of IDL code into python, but rather to be an
assistant when migrating an IDL codebase into Python. The human still has
to go over the resulting code and make it valid. The most important thing
for the code migration is to start with unit tests in IDL, and then have
identical unit tests in python. This helps to make sure all of the code is
doing exactly what you expect them to do before and after code migration.
Best of luck to you!
