------------------------------------------------------------

This README.TXT file provides information for setting 
up the IDL Development Environment (IDE) to support the CDE File
File Manager for HP-UX, Solaris and Dec Unix.

The CDE File Manager support in IDL Development environment
allows for the following functionality:

	- IDL .pro files can be dragged and dropped 
	  from the CDE File Manager onto the IDL
 	  Development Environment.

 	- Double-clicking a IDL .pro file displays
	  the file in IDE.

At installation the CDE Action file, Idl.dt, is installed
in /etc/dt/appconfig/types/C/ on the local machine if this
directory has write permissions.  This file will provide the
necessary support for the CDE File Manager on that
machine.   However, if IDL is installed on a server and is
run on various client machines, the CDE Action File will need 
to be manually copied to each of the client machines in order 
to have the this CDE File Manager functionality on each of the 
clients.  This file will also need to be copied to the server if
the /etc/dt/appconfig/types/C/ directory did not have write
permissions at installation time.   

Copying CDE Action file to client machines
------------------------------------------

- Locate the Idl.dt file in <RSI-Directory>/<IDL-Directory>/bin
- Copy this file into the /etc/dt/appconfig/types/C/ on each
  client machine.  
- In the Idl.dt file verify the path to the 
  <RSI-Directory>/<IDL-Directory>/bin
  directory in the ACTION Idl section is correct for
  the client machine.

  For example,  if idl is located in /usr/local/rsi, the ACTION Idl
  section should look like this:

ACTION Idl
{
     LABEL         Idl
     TYPE          COMMAND
     EXEC_STRING   /bin/sh -c '. /usr/local/rsi/idl_setup.ksh;idl -c -e %Arg_1%'
     ICON          Dtactn
     WINDOW_TYPE   NO_STDIO
     DESCRIPTION   Start Idl Development Environment
}
