RE: RPG Free Format question

It's just my opinion, based on personal taste (and my superior
intelligence and moral character <g>,) but I never liked setting a bunch
of indicators using movea.  My criterion is "How easy is it to read this
code at 2AM?"  For setting a bunch of indicators if it's a task that
needs to be done more than once, I'll write a procedure with a name that
tries to describe what's going on.  E. g. I have a standard procedure
for subfiles that sets the indicators that prepare it for loading.
