PyWPS ships HTML data, just like a web server.  If your IDL script only
produces output in a window, then there is no way to do it.  But if your
IDL script produces an image file, then I think you could grab that file
and send it back as an HTML image.  It would take a lot of
experimentation, but it might be possible.
