I was just wondering what editors you folks use when you're coding RPG (does
anyone actually use SEU?)

I do all but one-line changes using a PC-based editor called CRISP, which
emulates Brief.  It supports custom-color-coding of various structures,
configurable indentation, code completion...basically all the standard fare
for good PC editors.

The reason this came to mind is all of the discussion on Free Form code.
Most code editors I have ever used have auto-indent features which are very
"free-form-friendly", if you will, but this feature wouldn't be available if
any sort of requirement for a special character in column 7 remains, which I
personally shudder to imagine.

p.s. I have no relation or interest in CRISP, except as a user of the
product.  I mention it only as the first respondent in my own little survey.
