On the Linux systems where I work, I simply type 'envi' at the command
line; the ENVI gui pops up, while the normal IDL start-up message
appears in the terminal window, followed by the usual IDL prompt. I can
then issue any IDL commands I want in the terminal window; I presume
that I can interact with ENVI in that windows, though I've never
actually tried it.

I've done something like this with a combination of IDL's
COMMAND_LINE_ARGS function and an IDL startup file. What I did was set
it up so that I could start IDL with a command line argument that acts
as a flag. Then set up my start up file so that it calls
COMMAND_LINE_ARGS, and if it sees that flag, it starts ENVI (and does
whatever batch stuff you want). I actually used this trick to get the
Windows "Send To" menu to automatically start envi and open a file if
i gave it an envi image, but I think this should also work for your
problem.
Hope it helps,
Jeff
