Wow ... you're not very productive at all Joe <grin/>.

I am at least 90% more productive using RDi ... and I don't like outline view & don't use content assist.

Just having a larger view of source, copy & paste, being able to view 2 or more source members at the same time, etc, all make me far more productive.

And that's working on a mix of RPG II through ILE.

"RPG II"??? What have I told you about vulgarity, Joe! <grin times="2"/>

SEU has no place as the primary development tool for a programmer, in
ANY language. It works, but it's the wrong tool for the job.

Sadly, I can't agree entirely with that ... RDi / RDp have a long way to go when it comes to CL. That's primarily what I use SEU for now.

How often do you use SEU to write Java code, Vern?

Vulgarity!
