That's actually the current release, which is a few months old.

The only thing IDLWAVE doesn't do under Windows is run IDL as a sub-process.
All of the editing, keyword/routine completion, syntax coloring, help lookup,
shadow detection, etc. stuff is available, as far as I know. For someone used
to IDLDE, it doesn't have as much of the functionality "up front" (and in your
way). Maybe you need to read the tutorial? That said, you will be happier
playing with it on your Linux box. Certain features rely on interacting with
the IDL shell (such as, "which routines are compiled", etc.).
