RE: /FREE RPG compiler errors

["Bob Cagle" <bcagle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, CODE is a "plug-in" for WDSC.  And you're right, it is too
slow!  IBM really needs to improve upon that if they want all of us old
green-screeners to switch!

Back to the point - I have seen absolutely nothing wrong with /Free and
have not seen or heard of any compiler errors.

<blink> You mean you don't use QBASIC on a 8088 DOS machine???

Bzzzttt... wrong, try again ... CODE is dead, long live WDSC ... for now
at
least, until IBM comes up with the next replacement.

Personally, I don't use CODE or WDSC for RPG coding on the 400 ... I
don't
like CODE's paradigm and WDSC is too slow (even on my 2ghz desktop
machine).

But we digress :)
