Re: rpg free

We have found /FREE to be quicker as a tool in development.  Several of us
here came from the C world, so everything kinda fell into place.

Performance-wise....have not noticed any real improvement.  But--we have
never performed any structured benchmarks....

Just my $.02

Subject: rpg free


     I am "old school" I guess.   I use RPG400  but a new programmer we
have hired learned in rpg free.    She is fresh out of a training class
so is very new to the programming world but likes to use the free code.
I am an RPGIV  and RPG400  syntax.  So when she has questions it is hard
for me because the syntax it all different.  I am wondering if I should
bite the bullet and start learning the free code.   But when we went
from RPGIV to RPG400 there were a lot of advantages and uses to want to
convert.   Is there any advantages to going to the free code besides not
being restricted to columns?

Thankyou!!
