Actually EIGRP routes IP/IPX and AT.  Or at least you can turn on EIGRP for each protocol using 3 different types of EIGRP.  Further Multiprotocol BGP can route protocols outside of the IP domain as well though standard BGPv4 is purely an IP protocol.  Even further, IS-IS will route both CLNP and IP

Routing protocols are used to maintain routing tables.
Routed protocols are used for addressing and accessing stations on a network.
The process of routing is the ability of a router being able to receive a packet, check the destination in the packet, look for a destination network in the route table and switch the packet to the appropriate interface that can reach the destination network.
So routing is the process of:
1. declaring a destination
2. finding the destinaton
3. switching the packet to an interface on the path to the destination.
Many protocols are involved in this process from ARP to BGP or anything in between.
