I'd go with the above, since it is in active development and supported
by an active contributor to this group. But just for completeness
sake,
The LaTeX listing package seems to support IDL
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/listing s/
a2ps will syntax highlight IDL, but I'm not sure how to get the output
into LaTeX. Perhaps you could then include the PS or PDFs in your
LaTeX source.
-k.

The highlighting in IDLdoc is quite simple. I recommend Highlight for
better results:
http://www.andre-simon.de/
Here is a short article on using it for IDL:
http://michaelgalloy.com/2009/09/24/syntax-highlighting-idl- code.html
There is an --tex option to produce TeX output, the default is HTML.
