RE: How to set tabs for free form mode

[batthish@xxxxxxxxxx]

While I can appreciate my product being flamed as much as the next person :
-),  it might be more beneficial if you would indicate specific features
that you would like see added to/modified in the product rather than some
general unhappy statement.
To make "official" requests for new function, please see the following web

As for setting tabs in free form, this is not the first time I have
received this feedback.  As you all know, CODE function is being integrated
into eclipse over the next little while.  All I can say, is that having
heard this comment several times, this feedback was taken into
consideration when porting the existing function over.

And if you haven't heard, the 5.0 release (>4.0>V5R1M0 - lets PLEASE not
get into this again :-)  ) has been announced.  Please read the details
here:

Even though it is true that CODE is a much improved editor over SEU,
compared to most of the PC programming editors it's a joke.  I use it
because I've hated SEU since I first started using it on the S/38 but when
I think of even the editor bundled with Borland's Turbo languages I have to
laugh.  That DOS based programming environment from over 10 years ago was
still so much more advanced then CODE/400 is now.
