In
addition to clicking on a Source: line in the routine info
window, there is another way to quickly visit the source file of
a routine. The command C-c C-v
(idlwave-find-module) asks for a module name,
offering the same default as idlwave-routine-info
would have used, taken from nearby buffer contents. In the
minibuffer, specify a complete routine name (including any class
part). IDLWAVE will display the source file in another window,
positioned at the routine in question. You can also limit this to
a routine in the current buffer only, with completion, and a
context-sensitive default, by using a single prefix (C-u C-c
C-v) or the convenience binding C-c C-t.
Since getting the
source of a routine into a buffer is so easy with IDLWAVE, too
many buffers visiting different IDL source files are sometimes
created. The special command C-c C-k
(idlwave-kill-autoloaded-buffers) can be used to
easily remove these buffers.
