Well, the .plist file is not a regular file like .cshrc, but needs to be
created in an XML type language. This describes how:

Can you give that a try and let us know how it goes? You could also
define an IDL_PATH in your .emacs, something like

(setenv "IDL_PATH" "<IDL_DEFAULT>:/path/to/something:+/otherpath/to/something/else ")

Any luck with that?
