Perhaps there's a setting, or an open RFE for this, or maybe it's already
available in a newer RDi version (currently running 9.1.1)?
Some of my RPG source members are a bit long, and within them, some of the
subroutines and subprocedures are also a bit long.  I often wonder
(particularly when I'm searching for occurrences of global variables) where
I am in the source. The line number tells me I'm in deep, but... Which
subroutine or subprocedure am I looking at LPEX, and how would I know
without having to scroll up to find the begsr or P-spec?
If I'm the first to bring this up, and if I'm not the only one on Planet i
for whom a solution would be helpful, I'd be happy to offer an RFE to show
the name of the subroutine or inline subprocedure where the cursor is
located.  Could be displayed at the top of the LPEX pane to the right of
the "Line 1187   Column 8   Replace".  Perhaps right-adjusted to the far
right of the visible window? Or on the very bottom line of the editor,
between the last visible source statement and the command line?
Any support for this?
