Hi,
as far as I remember this is not the first time this question came
up...

Nevertheless, it can be solved. The problem seems to be that wided is searching
for a file `template.pro' in the .../idl_4/help/widget directory in order
to include it as header into the newly written .pro file.
However, in the plain installation this file does not exist, and wided is
reporting an error. A symbolic link
.../idl_4/help/widget/template.pro -> .../idl_4/examples/general/template.pro
fixes this; alternatively, you might provide your favourite template in
the appropiate directory.
Hope this helps, regards from Berlin,

Nope, I've got the same problem, too. I use IDL with
OpenVMS/Alpha. But I can use the procedures created by wided and saved
'Without header'. So, the problem seems not too serious to me.
