I added a line to my profile.lx file that allows <Alt+T> to set focus at the first row. This allows <Alt+T> to perform its intended purpose according to the Help -> Keys Help. Keys Help says, "Alt + T Move line with cursor to top focus line of current file view." Without the line in profile.lx, <Alt+T> does not appear to do anything. I added the following line to my profile.lx file: 'set action.a-t focus.next 1' The Help -> Keys Help appears to have some inconsistencies. For example, 1) Alt+T mentioned above does not do anything. I think the text should probably stay but have functionality added. 2) Text Ctrl+F4 should replace Shift+F4 and keep the same description "Displays the insert prompt window". 3) Text for Shift+F4 should be added to say the same thing as Alt+N. 4) Text for Enter should say the same thing as Ctrl+Enter. I don't think there are any cases now where enter actually splits the line at the cursor. I did not look at any keys that are missing or keys I don't use very often but I hope this gives a start to showing common inconsistencies in keys help. I also added the following lines to profile.lx for setting the top and bottom lines as the rows that trigger scrolling instead of the default line 3 and -3. 'set focus.top' 'set focus.bottom' Of course, I have the following two lines for maximizing the window and setting the beeping off that I will probably always have and I think most other people do as well: 'set window max' 'set beep off' Thanks to Brian James, I added the lines for executing his clipline.lx macro for allowing cutting and copying a line without first marking or selecting. Thanks, Brian, they work great. I think your clipline.lx should replace the one that is on the website of user shared macros. I stopped using the one that was on the website a long time ago because it would not allow me to select one line again after I had already selected two and pasting above the line (the exact same problems you mentioned). The old clipline.lx macros is at http://www-3.ibm.com/software/ad/varpg/support/moresupport.html then -> "VARPG and CODE/400 Samples and Macros" then under user shared macros. I have a customized macro for creating a subroutine for RPG ILE and another for RPG that I use very often that I can e-mail anyone who is interested. Some of you may already have created your own. Maybe somethings similar to this could be added to the Actions -> Smart Guides as a standard function called "Create subroutine". Thanks, Craig Strong
