+Revision 5.2
+=============
+ - Supports IDLv6.0, including a new set of HTML documentation.
+ - Pads new IDL6 assignment operators (e.g. #=, XOR=), when
+ `idlwave-surround-with-space' is set. Operators with
+ alphabetical prefixes must be separated from the left-hand-side
+ with a space.
+ - Better behavior of keyword and for-loop assignment padding.
+ - Rescan saved paths when "Save Path Info" selected.
+ - Fixed small continued statement indentation for closing
+ parentheses on a line by themselves.
+ - Better handling of continued statement indents with in-line
+ assignments and for loops, e.g. "if 1 then a=1 else $".
+ - Always show HTML help if available, using in-file help for those
+ routines with available source code as a backup.
+ - Filename completion after "." no longer confused with structure
+ completion.

-If you have any customization for the older `idl-mode' in your .emacs
