I want to include some of my code in my thesis, so I need to be able to
import the code into a document.
Does anyone know of a routine that will convert a .pro file to a
document that preserves the syntax highlighting seen in the IDL window?
Copying the code from within IDL 5.0 doesn't allow me to paste it into a
word processor with its formatting intact.
I figure it would be possible to write a small program that would
convert a source file into a rich-text-format document by searching for
various keywords and inserting the appropriate format statements, but I
don't really have the time to look into it.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Hi Brad,
What's your word processor?
I' ve got a macro for MSWORD95 (WIN) that does it in black & white.
In fact it does not preserve the IDL colored highlights but when you
open your IDL source code in MSWORD it will search again for reserved
words, keywords, built-in routine
names and comments. Then, these are set to BOLD or ITALIC.
You can edit this macro to add your own reserved words. I believe you
can also modify it in order to get some colors.
I use it when I need to turn off my computer and read quietly my code on
a real sheet of paper, with a real pen in the hand, looking for really
obscure
programming errors that make me stand hours in front of the same screen
- I'm sure I'm not the only one around there. ;-)
You can download the zipped file on my IDL reference page

Hope this helps,
cheers,
SEb.
