Hi Chris,
Congratulations on a good job. However, I just downloaded
and attempted to use the new version, but my xemacs 19.11, which
is the latest supported version for ULTRIX, gives an error for
the easy-menu-add function. So, Xemacs is unable to load the mode.
Could you email or post a method to get rid of the easy-menu-add
feature ? I can do very well without the idl menu, but I really like
the indentation and color support in Xemacs.
Thanks.
Santanu

I would change that to:

"If you don't use emacs to edit IDL ".pro" files then
you should!"

It's a great little utility! Thanks Chris!
