Hi Scott
I had a go about a year ago, but didn't get very far. Recently I was
contacted by Marc Mims about it, and we've (mainly Marc) put together a
basic syntax file for RPG400. I used that as a basis for RPGIV and DDS,
but I'm not doing very well getting any further at present. I'll send you
what I have so far, and if you can help out, that would be great.
BTW. setting the syntax to Rexx for CL code works very well as-is.
Regards, Martin
