Under IDL7 I got lazy and realised that instead of stopping then re-compiling, the re-compile button effectively does both, saving a mouse click and delaying carpal tunnel a little bit longer. This worked fine under IDL7 but will crash the IDLDE under IDL8 too often to make it worthwhile. I'm trying to break the habit with mixed success.
Ah, there was a problem, finally corrected, but I am not sure in which
version of IDL 8.x, that involved recompiling main-level programs that
had stopped with an error. I do remember crashes and huge annoyance with
this, until I retrained my fingers to type .reset before re-compiling
stopped main-level programs. I never had this problem with procedures
and functions.
Cheers,
David
