I have placed idl.el in several places:
ftp://fermi.jhuapl.edu/pub/idl_emacs/
ftp://eos.crseo.ucsb.edu/pub/idl/
You can also find it at the ohio-state Emacs Lisp archive, but
sometimes they are slow at archiving the latest submission:
At the above sites there is a draft document describing idl.el called
idl-mode.txt.
ftp://archive.cis.ohio-state.edu/pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive /misc/
The latest version of idl.el is 1.18.
I have also placed the latest version (1.19) of idl-shell.el in the
above locations. idl-shell.el runs IDL as an inferior process in an
emacs buffer. It provides the features of comint.el (which is used in
many other emacs inferior process modes) and provides some debugging
abilities similar to gud (xdb) mode, e.g. setting and deleting of
breakpoints. There are still lots of problems and improvements needed
to the debugging features, but I find it very useful. I am much more
productive in my IDL programming using idl-shell as opposed to running
IDL in a terminal.
Send bug reports, comments and suggestions to me.
