That sounds like a good feature request for IDLdoc.

That would be excellent to have. IDLdoc has already helped me with
spell checking, which I run on the html result. It is awkward to do,
but helpful, as most of the text ends up in the IDLdoc comments, and
the html does not contain most of the code (it still contains code in
the form of examples and keyword / routine names). So I only have to
inspect the other comments, in the middle of the code, where errors
are much rarer, as they are short, and I read them while writing the
programs.
