" What we base our design decisions on is input from a group of RPG programmers who care about what gets in the language. Many RPG programmers simply don't care one way or the other. Some simply don't bother (or can't) keep up with the latest developments in the language. In some cases, programmers ask for things that have been in the language for several releases!" I guess I fit some where in here. I ask questions here for projects I'm currently working on, to get knew ideas on ways to do things. And I also ask questions about anything I haven't seen before, when it is posted on this list and others. I always encourage people to at least join a list like this to at get a taste of the new stuff (they may or may not use). This is a great learning tool and I've been learning with IBM RPG since I saw "sawdust" dump out of a desktop S/36 we got from a wood mill. Which by the way became our office computer. Wrote my first program after finishing school on it (solitaire). Then went on that year to support S/36 S/38 AS400(in beta shops). This post " Please vote for Syntax check in /FREE! " has made me want to digress to "programmers simply don't care one way or the other" . Very Unproductive Thinking!!! Bill Hopkins
