Learning IDLDOC

I just installed Mike Galloy's IDLDOC plugin for the IDL Workbench and I'm learning how to use it. My first feeble attempts can be scoffed at on my software page, where I've started to document the latest versions of the ENVI extensions in my book. By the time the Revised Second Edition comes out later this year, I hope to have mastered the techniques. Already, though, I think it's a fantastic tool.

One problem I have is that the ".\" prefixed to the filenames in ALL-FILES.HTML generated by IDLDOC is confusing my (much-loved) Firefox browser. IE6 has no difficulty. Just now I'm removing them by hand.

It must be some platform issue if it is really a ".\" instead of a "./". I don't have access to a Windows box right now, but I can check to see if some place is using PATH_SEP() where it should be using a hardcoded "/".
