Writing to the IDL prompt? [message #50068]

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is a way to write to the idl prompt so that
IDL> write2prompt, 'string'

returns a prompt, populated with the string:
IDL> string

I am aware of idlwave, but was trying to figure out a way to write a
recursive history search for the idl command line. Something along the
lines of ctrl-r on bash or a recursive ^ if you will...

I have a funny feeling there's no solution, but I thought I'd ask
anyway.

Thanks,
Gianguido
