There is not recursive option; you have to put an .idldoc file into
every subdirectory.

There is a docs/ subdirectory in the IDLdoc distribution with PDFs of a
tutorial and reference guide. The reference guide has a description of
the tags allowed in directory overview files, but doesn't give much of
an overview what exactly a "directory overview file" is or even to name
it ".idldoc". Will add to the docs.
