Cool, thanks for the interest! I have thought about this for a while to
scratch my own itch, but I'm realizing that others are also interested
(the topic has been brought up on the newsgroup several times).
Leave a comment on the article if you have any feature suggestions,
particularly if there are any magic commands (meta-commands to the rIDL
pre-processor, not IDL commands) you would like.
The article is at:

I'll create a Trac site and email list for the project soon, stay tuned
or comment on the article if you want to be added to the list.
Mike
