RE: Adoption of new RPG techniques

Aaron - The V5R1 .pdf that I have has many if not most of it's examples in 
/free.  I can send it to you offline if you like.

Subject: Adoption of new RPG techniques


I am giving a short presentation on /Free format at our next department
meeting and went out to find some good links that the programmers in my shop
could reference.  I thought it was interesting that the ILE RPG Reference
and ILE RPG Programmers Guide has many examples using C specs instead of
/Free.  Why would the documentation be encouraging fixed format when it
introduces /Free in the same exact document.  Could this be one of the
reasons programmers don't jump onto the bandwagon as fast as IBM would like?

Just thought this was interesting,
Aaron Bartell
