No syntax checking in free-form RPG

 >> The explanation given is that free-form is too hard to parse.

Where did you get this "explanation" Joe?  The fact that the syntax checker
wasn't working was quite a surprise to me - perhaps because I tend to verify
so frequently I just hadn't noticed.  It strikes me as a (hopefully)
temporary aberration caused by a resource shortage.  Much like the horrible
state of the V5R2 RPG documentation in CODE (haven't checked in jLPEX) which
omits a whole bunch of stuff like %KDS and has a number of simple errors
like the bits on using a DS as a result field.
