If you're an emacs user, look up idlwave-mode at http://idlwave.org/
It uses etags to generate a tags table. If not, but you're still a
unix user you might grab etags. The command that's called by
idlwave-shell to generate the tags file is:
etags --output=IDLTAGS --language=none \
--regex='/[\\t]*[pP][Rr][Oo][ \\t]+\\([^ \\t,]+\\)/' \
--regex='/[\\t]*[Ff][Uu][Nn][Cc][Tt][Ii][Oo][Nn][ \\t]+\\([^ \\t,]+\\)/' \
foo.pro [... bar.pro ... etc.]
where the newlines have been escaped for readibility.
or
etags --out...blah blah blah... ./dir1/*.pro [ ... ./dir2/*.pro ... etc.]
