... well, I am back to the newsgroup after an almost equally long time
(12 days +) ;-)
I only reply here, because I could not see anyone mention the one and
only most wonderful idlwave mode for (X)Emacs distributed by Carsten
Dominik : http://www.strw.leidenuniv.nl/~dominik/Tools/idlwave/

... and if you want to learn a little bit what i snow available in
terms of IDL libraries etc., check out my web page at
http://www.mpimet.mpg.de/~schultz.martin/idl/

Cheers and happy relearning,

Martin
