RE: Display files not compatible with new RPG syntax

["jt" <jt@xxxxxx>]

I don't do this with client's code...!  But in playing around I only use
SFLCTL indicators and I name them.  I emulate DSPATR(PC) with CSRROW,
CSRCOL?? (or P-fields something similar)...

I'm afraid that, unless IBM changes direction, they're finished WITH DDS, so
somebody else will have to finish it for them.
