RE: Missed the fact that a line was commented out... -- RPG400-L

Bob,

WDSC will run on a piece of s***, as long as it has plenty of memory, so you
really only need to get up to 1GB of memory, and your flying.

The current version will run fine on a 700Mhz with 512Mb of RAM (One of my
current specs!)

cheers

The problem with WDSc is the cost. It is so expensive. I know, I know it is
"free" but if you don't already have a PC big enough to run it, it is a
$1000 per programmer product. Granted that was $2500 per programming some 18
months ago, and will continue to fall, but so will oil prices. Today it is
very costly to get into WDSc. CodeSTudio and CODE/400 can run on a
Piece-of-S--- (aka "POS") PC with little trouble. Someday all PCs will have
1GB memory minimum and we'll be calling them POS's because 8 to 16 GB will
be the high-end.

Hmm...It was faster than SEU for me in about an hour.  Just having the tab
key move the cursor from field to field in fixed format gave me a boost.
For the first week I used mostly SEU line commands and gradually learned how
to use the tools in WDSCI (well I stared with CODE400.)

The help that comes with the product explains the editor pretty well.

This may sound like a stupid question but I've noticed several in this group
using WDSC.  I've been playing with it a little but still find I can code
about twice as fast in SEU.  Is there a tutorial that teaches an old SEU RPG
programmer how to be proficient in using WDSC vs. SEU? It just doesn't
behave exactly like SEU but that might be because I don't know some of the
short cuts.  I'm trying to force myself to use it but it's hard to switch.

Thanks guys.
