RE: Coloring the RPG code

Yes, I'm also one of these dinosaurs.

I have no interest in using CODE/400, because I have no interest in
running Windows on my desktop.   I find it very hard to believe that any
editor would make me significantly more productive than I am in SEU, I can
bang out code at rates that have alarmed some of my coworkers :)

When IBM makes Code/400 for FreeBSD, I'll give it a try.  Until then, I'll
probably be running SEU.  (Unless, of course, someone makes an RPG syntax
checker for vi or emacs)

IBM's continued talk about their commitment to Linux whilst doing their
damnedest to try to FORCE ME to run Windows is absurd.  Next thing you
know, the AS/400 is going to require Microsoft Office, and all editing
will be done in Word.  I find that I dream of the day when an animated
paper clip can give me tips on RPG programming.
