No, no, no. Goodness, no. :-)

Stay organized. Lumping things all together in one
folder will make your workspace look like my wife's
desk. You don't want that! :-(

Just be sure you are clear on what a "relative" filename is,
and what an "absolute" filename is. It is probably always best
to use absolute filenames, if you are not sure exactly where
you are.

And, are you *sure* you have your IDL path problems worked
out? If you set your path properly, you won't have to be
worrying so much about where things are. They will be found
when they are needed.

Have you considered a good book about IDL programming. :-)

Cheers,

David
