Re: No syntax checking in free-form RPG

Joe, 

I have experienced similar feautures.

Coding some lines without the 'C' in postion 6 it simply accepted an EVAL line 
without the infamous semi-colon.

Strangely enough: coding multiple lines of H-specs and using one keyword twice 
(on different lines) will generate an syntax error.

But then: with progress you have to give up the advantages of the past.

Regards,
Carel Teijgeler.
