I have recently began using the tags features of vim (:help tags) with my fortran codes and come to appreciate their power. I also do a lot of coding in IDL (Interactive Data Language), but found that ctags did not have native support for IDL. If you take the time you can learn how to get ctags to support IDL, but I found, after a search of usenet, that someone else has already done this and written a perl script called idltags. It is part of an emacs package (is anyone still reading?) that you need to download, called idlwave, which is located at:
http://idlwave.org/
and currently (I don't know if this will change) the direct download link is
http://idlwave.org/download/idlwave.tar.gz
In the usenet pages the maintainer, JD Smith, was suggesting that idlwave had outgrown idltags and was not sure it was still needed, so I don't know how long it will be available.
