Interesting quirk in IDLdoc (3.5.0)
type: item
description: I spent a couple of hours this friday evening tracking down why all my RST comments in one file disappeared, and I could not see anything wrong with my comments. I managed to whittle it down to this, the smallest case that reproduces the behaviour. IDL has no problem with the extra $ after 'begin', but it seems to upset IDLdoc tremedously. ; ------------------ >8 ----------- ;+ ; One description ;- pro one if 1 then begin $ ; remove the dollar on this line to restore sanity print, "hello, " endif end ;+ ; This description (and everything from here on) disappears ;- pro two print, " world!" end
