Extracted from the IDL and PV-WAVE (update coming soon) FAQs:
Chris Chase (chase@jackson.jhuapl.edu) has written idl.el, a major mode
for editing IDL code. He has also written idl-shell.el for running IDL as
an inferior process under emacs. URLs for these files are:

ftp://eos.crseo.ucsb.edu/pub/idl/
ftp://fermi.jhuapl.edu/pub/idl_emacs/
Get the files: idl.el and idl-shell.el

Lubos Pochman has developed a PV~WAVE major mode. Given the (remaining)
strong similarity between PV~WAVE and IDL, it has many of the features
that one would like in such a mode. URLs for this file are:

ftp://ftp.pvi.com/PVI/emacs/
ftp://eos.crseo.ucsb.edu/pub/idl/
Get the file wave-mode.shar

Yes, an IDL mode do exist.

You can find Chris Chase's (IMHO excellent) idl mode in:

ftp://fermi.jhuapl.edu/pub/idl_emacs/idl.el
ftp://eos.crseo.ucsb.edu/pub/idl/idl.el.Z


Also well worth checking out is the idl-shell mode that is at the same
place. I use this quite often when writing new routines, as it loads
and displays the file that gives an error and places point at the
offending line - quite neat.

Jarle.
