Problem setting up emacs idl-shell [message #6232]

I want to run idl form an emacs idl shell. I installed idl-shell.el
and added the appropriate line to my .emacs file. When I typed

M-x idl-shell

I got the error message:

Cannot open load file: idl

I figure that line 234 in idl-shell.el, which reads

(require 'idl)

is causing the problem, so I changed it to include the full path to
idl executable. When I tried it again, I got a different error
message:

Invalid read syntax: "#"

Anyone know how to set it up so it works?
Thanks.

Alan
