Wait a minute... It seem that the IDLDE process just didn't stop. I'm
trying again. I'll let you know what happens.
It seems that the background process of "Analyzing code..." continues
after I quit the IDLDE - I have a fairly large path, and it takes
several minutes to "analyze", so during this testing I quit IDL before
the background process was finished - That locks the IDLDE workspace.
This is not acceptable. I think that 7.0.1 needs to have a "Analyzing
code..." work-around. Oh for my command line and emacs...
