Hi Mike, thanks for the reply. It worked for the directory. However it does not work recursively into the sub-directories. Do I have to put the .idldoc into every sub-directory or is there an easy way?

Is the usage of ".idldoc" file documented anywhere? I remember once I downloaded a PDF version documentation of IDLdoc. That is where I learned the usage of "overview" and "footer" files. I cannot find the file anymore and it does not seem to be available on the website (http://idldoc.idldev.com/). I wonder if I can find the usage of the .idldoc file in that file. I also tried "make book" with the idldoc source. But it failed with the message " LaTeX Error: File `xifthen.sty' not found ". Any suggestions?
