Request for CL, DDS, SQL RPG enhancements

I see your point about a display and a DB file open at the same time, but as
you say, folks would just do more and we'd have bigger nastier, GOTO laden
messes all over the place.

 > Curious -- why do you dislike CL?

Mostly because of the lack of control structures, primitive (or at least
non-intuitive) error handling,  strange ideas about math and string
operations, and then there is the fact that since I can never remember the
syntax and have to prompt it, I always gets IBM's ugly default formatting
all over the place.

Apart from that it's lovely <grin>
