Dear Matt,

there is a small amount of rules you should know.
* !PATH does not exist in runtime

* the filename of the routine have to be the same as
the calling procedure.
* EXECUTE won't work (e.g. read_ascii uses EXECUTE)
* nothing could be compiled but other compiled routines
could be loaded.
This means you can separatly build runtime modules
for each routine or one for a routine with all dependent
routines.

* if a compiled routine is in the search path then this
routine is loaded instead of compiling the source by
working with the interpreter.

* calling is idl -rt=./my_runtime.sav

All routines of our library are compiled by this routine:

http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/compile.tar.gz

for example

url_get -o x_def_colortable.sav
http://www.fz-juelich.de/icg/icg-i/idl_icglib/idl_source/idl _html/dbase/download/x_def_colortable.sav
idl -rt=./x_def_colortable

Further routines you find at
