"Show nested block" does not give the results I expect, which led to the

Which is...?

Where do I find the Help for Rational Developer for IBM i for RPGLE
source? Specifically, I want to read about (right click) Source -->
Show nested block in an RPGLE source member. (It shows the blocks
sometimes, and sometimes it is grayed out and sometimes nothing
happens. Which sounds to me like I need to RTFM. If I can find it.)

Most of the pieces/parts of Lpex are... self documenting. Ish. This is
one of those things. Show Block Nesting (Ctrl-Shift-O) will accurately
draw the lines under the proper circumstances.

1) The source must compile. Imagine temporarily unmatched IF/END blocks.
2) You must be on an IF/END line.
3) You must NOT have source selected.

There are probably more things, but these are what spring immediately to
mind. There isn't documentation on any of this that I know of beyond
the generic
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v7r1m0/index.jsp?topic=%2Frzasc%2Fsc09250722.htm.
Which can also be reached via Help, Help Contents.

I'd dearly love to be able to update the Developerworks wiki but that
seems beyond my reach. On the other hand, maybe we could put together
our own Wiki pages to document Lpex. How about this:
