Sorry to dig up old threads but I wonder if anyone got the idl shell
working withing the Carbon Emacs (21.3.50)?

I have been trying but so far not successfully. It seems to start fine,
shows me correct (remote) license information and then just gets stuck
before showing me the 'IDL> '. The license server says that it's in
use, but I cannot do anything, rather my hold Emacs freezes until I
manually kill the idl thread.

The IDLWAVE FAQ mention a file '~/.MacOSX/environment.plist', which I
did not have and the creation of which (soft-linked to my .cshrc) did
not change anything.

Anybody knows? Everybody using fink's xemacs? I'd really like the
Carbon Emacs...

Thanks for any hints

Chris
