you do not need a complete IDE, just a command line interface.

1. create runcmd.pro

pro runcmd
cmd=''
while 1 do begin
read, cmd, prompt='IDL> '
x=execute(cmd)
endwhile
end

runcmd
end

2. compile it and save, file='runcmd.sav', /routines

3. run idl -vm with runcmd.sav, and you would have a command prompt if
EXECUTE would be operational. (This would work on linux/unix. On windows,
you could create an editable text widget with EXECUTE in the event handling
routine.)

regards,
lajos
