The tricky part is the code that reads and writes IDL save files. IDL

That seems to grant permission to use it.
Yes, but it clearly does not grant permission to modify it. That code is
non-free.
Really, where? The text of the license cannot be modified, but I don't
see where the code cannot (other than to change it to read not data
portions of the save file - is that the trouble?)
