With the exception of display (and maybe printer) files, is there any good reason to use indicators anymore?
No. There is nothing in the language that requires numbered indicators. I would also make the point that code such as If *IN03 = '1' has never been needed in RPG IV. A much better approach is to use a named constant with the appropriate value. E.g. If *IN(ExitRequest) Display and printer files can also make use of the INDDS keyword on the F spec to allow the numbered indicators to be mapped to a DS containing named indicators.
