what is idl?

[Nathan Field <nathan Lanfear ST HMC Edu>]

I'm getting compile problems with gnome-core:

make[2]: Entering directory
`/home/src/nathan/GUI_devel/gnome/gnome-core/panel'
idl --name gnome-panel ./gnome-panel.idl
make[2]: idl: Command not found
make[2]: *** [gnome-panel.cc] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/home/src/nathan/GUI_devel/gnome/gnome-core/panel'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/src/nathan/GUI_devel/gnome/gnome-core'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

Anyone know what idl is and where to get it?
