Re: RPG Indicators

Shishir,

As far as I know, you can use a system field for everything -but- position
cursor.  So indicators are still needed.
Our shot standard is to position cursor AND reverse image an error field (along
with an error message subfile entry), so if we have to use an indicator for the
position cursor we might as well use the same indicator to reverse image and 
then
there is no point in the system variable.
