IDL Language Module for BBEdit

So I did up a quick codeless language module for IDL. It’s pretty rough. It really only recognizes comments, strings, and a bunch of built in procedures. I don’t know how to add coloring for your own procedures, which is a shame because IDL is really suited for extending the built in functionality with your own procedures. Oh well, it’s better than nothing.

    Thanks for doing this! I agree that it’d be great to have it work on your own procedures but this is much better than what I had.

    Thank you for writing IDL.plist ! It works also with the free text editor TextWrangler 2 ( http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/index.shtml ) Some reserved IDL-Strings have to be added: endfor, endcase, of, endrep.
