I want to customize idltool for IDL version 3.6 under OpenWindows 3 ans SunOS
4.1.3 on a Sparc 2. I've had good success due to the readable instructions
supplied in $IDL_DIR/Idl. However, I have two problems.

1.
Changing

Idl*idltool*confirmQuit: False

does not kill the confirmation window for quitting. Does anybody have this
effect, i.e., no effect?

2.
I want to increase the number of lines shown in the command window. There's
no resource mentioned to do this and trying:

Idl*idltool*command*text*rows: 5

has no effect (no error either). I suppose one command line is all there is.
Too bad. I'd like to see the last few commands here, and more importantly I'd
like to be able to edit long commands when I am trying things on the fly.
Anybody else had any success here?

3.
idltool looks good. We're back up sunview capability here!
