David, I'm not sure what language you use code for, but perhaps this will
be useful for you.

In the next service pack, the SIGNATUR macro has been fixed so that  it
will add a signature in cols 1-5 of
RPG programs when new lines are entered.

In command line:  'EXTRAS ON' first.
Putting 'SIGNATUR enable'  in the command line should TOGGLE signature
enabled.
Putting 'SIGNATUR curline'  in the command line will put the signature on
the current line regardless of whether or not signature is enabled.
Putting 'SIGNATUR' in the command line will prompt for a signature but does
not TOGGLE signature enabled.

In the next release, this will be menu enabled and hopefully we'll be able
to put the signature on changed lines
as well (not just new ones) which is probably more useful especially for
users who are fixing code rather than writing new code.
