Re: COBOL support in RDi?

I've also turned off column-sensitive editing - too much weirdness when pasting in stuff - with RPG it's not just column 7, it was any of the columns, where the data pasted would end at the column boundaries.

As to copy-past, you can always use the SEU command codes.

As to Alt-C putting stuff where not expected, I think that's a matter of adapting to its behavior - those come from a different editor and have their own idiosyncrasies - but are fantastic to have - Alt-R to select a rectangle and then Alt-Z to overlay it anywhere - marvelous tool.

Jeff,

You can also use Ctrl-D to duplicate the current line. That may do what
you want as well.

I may have also changed my preferences to disable (column sensitive
editing).
Window > Preferences > Remote Systems > Remote Systems LPEX Editor
(then uncheck Column sensitive editing)

I didn't realize RPG had cross-reference data in the outline view. Yes
that would be nice to have in COBOL.

I am using Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. It had something to do when they added all
the column support after WDSC, could not just copy and paste one line if
you started the copy from Column 1. The pasting of the line stops at
Column 7.

I tried Alt-L and Alt-C and still sometimes it doesn't work paste the one
line correctly. Also notice the Alt-L Alt-C paste it one line below

where

I want to copy. I want to copy a line from Column 1 and paste it on the
next line below it starting in Column 1 and I have never been able to get
it to work consistently since WDSC 7. Coping more than 1 line never

gives

me issues, just 1 line by itself.

Thanks,
Jeff
