I agree. That is why I begged to have STRSEU removed or renamed from our system immediately after the departure of Jon Paris. Yes, we contracted Jon to come on site and do training. Then, after he left, they went back to SEU. Would have been nice if they'd at least tried CODE/400 for 30 days.

IMO, for the bulk of programmers, it has NOTHING to do with productivity, and EVERYTHING to do with comfort. Even with training, many would stick with SEU, just because it seems simpler and they think they understand it better.

I hate to agree in public, but I'm forced to. Virtually every iSeries programmer is automatically a 'hard core green screen addict' since they overwhelmingly use SEU/PDM for all their coding needs. An extremely unscientific survey of those I've met in the past ten years tells me that virtually nobody uses the SEU command line, and line commands outside of C/D/B/A are exotic. The point being that SEU users are very (no, extremely!) comfortable with SIMPLE and PRIMITIVE. If they wanted more features, they'd read the help on SEU and use what limited function it has. My logic may be flawed, of course. I don't personally think there's anything that can be done to entice programmers comfortable with SEU over to a GUI editor, speed included. --buck _______________________________________________ This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l. _______________________________________________ This is the Websphere Development Studio Client for iSeries (WDSCI-L) mailing list To post a message email: WDSCI-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/wdsci-l or email: WDSCI-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/wdsci-l.
