As far as I know, it is not possible to overload intrinsic
IDL commands.

Unless the print statements are "$-continued" to several lines ;-)
One could overload the print procudure, but I don't know how to
declare a procedure that takes multiple parameters. (BTW, can this be
done?)
Of course you could just use, say, 10 parameters and hope that's
enough...
pro print, arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5, arg6, arg7, arg8, arg9,
arg10, _extra=extra
; do nothing
return
end

True, I just tested it. Well I guess to avoid the situation I
mentioned, one could combine our solutions:
1- global replace of print with myPrint
2- write a myPrint procedure to do nothing.
Talk about minutae... (and anal-retentive) I gotta get back to work!
