Hi Carsten,
thanks again for keeping up the maintenance of this great tool! May
I use the opportunity to ask one question (feature already there else
request): Is there a chance to start (X)emacs directly with an IDL
shell but no editing window. When I am only "using" IDL (as opposed to
develop applications), I would like to have something simple like the
"idl" command to get to a command line interface directly. Are there
any XEmacs options to do that? I realize this might be difficult for
XEmacs first has to find out that I want to use the idlwave mode...
Regards,
Martin
