free form *inlr

Dennis;

<I think most people, like myself, just wonder why? If you are
going to use /free why mix in the cycle? it seems more confusing that way

and one of the main ideas behind /free code is readability. And speaking
of readability, I personally find If *InLR = *On; to be better than If
*InLR; because it is easier to read and comprehend.>

I guess it's the glasses, but, to answer your question, I don't consider
free to be more readable, I personnally like the ILE version of fixed
format. No unnecessary ";" at the end of every line, and as for using the
rpg cycle with free, who said that was wrong?
I'm sure this is a discussion I won't win, but I'm not in this to win, I'm
just doing the job my employer would like me to do. Complete projects on
time and produce accurate results.

If I use the RPG cycle to read files, who cares. I use the rpg cycle as a
convience, and I don't think of it as a negative. I admit, I currently am
forcing myself to use and learn rpg free, to learn, and be open minded. I
try to use the tools available for the job at hand.
