WHAT *WHY?!?*
Why would one WANT to convert RPG source to "/free" format? It seems
like an utterly pointless exercise to me. Why make one language look
like another? What I'd like to see would be a "Convert to Traditional
Format" function.
Then again, I will note that back at CSU Long Beach, I was introduced to
CDC's cockamamie free-format version of FORTRAN. And I loathed it
intensely, and avoided it entirely.
I believe that programming languages should keep their character. Which
is why when in RPG, I not only avoid "/free," but still ride The Cycle
whenever it suits the task at hand.
