I guess I don't understand this.  Eclipse syntax checks every Java
statement as it is entered.  Not only that, it checks surrounding lines
as well.  And it's very fast.

I am a HUGE fan of WDSC. If you don't believe me, read my latest column.

But the jLpex editors still need work, and syntax checking in
free-format is just one of those things that MUST be fixed for RPG to be
taken seriously as a language.

Just my opinion.
