Have a look at this:

http://www.dfanning.com/tips/namefiles.html

Also, search the IDL help index for "automatic compilation".

Note that this works for source (.pro) files as well as for compiled
routines in .sav files (say, if you call a function or procedure "taco"
from the command line or from within some other routine, it can be found
if its source is in a file taco.pro or if it is precompiled in a file
taco.sav).

Good luck,
Benjamin
