And if you actually like reading paper, I would suggest that
you look at the Advanced Development Guide, starting with
chapter 16, [17|18|19], then goto chapter 5 and forward. I
didn't find the organization of the ADG very good, as it took
a while for me to realize that the chapters prior to 16 also applied
to "Callable IDL", not simply to RPC IDL. I thought my callable
IDL was very limited to the few commands listed in chapter 17, but
it's not so.

Sure.

Look up "Introduction to Callable IDL" in the online help,
after opening the "IDL External Development Guide" in the
"normal" help contents section.
