Re: [WDSCI-L] Re: Indenting Fre-Format RPG

Craig,

I don't believe the View, Indent, works in free format, just in fixed 
format.  At least it didn't in Code last time I looked.  For example try 
this free format code:
     C/FREE
       for x = 1 to 3;
       y+=x;
       EndFor;
      /end-free 
     C                   for       x=1 to 3
     C                   eval      y+=x
     C                   EndFor


 And then do a View Indent.  You'll get:


     C/FREE
       for x = 1 to 3;
       y+=x;
       EndFor;
      /end-free
     C                   for       x=1 to 3
     C                   |  eval      y+=x
     C                   EndFor

Isn't that just the nuttiest thing you've ever heard of?

Or, for another example:

     C/FREE
       for x = 1 to 3;
       y+=x;
       EndFor;
      /end-free
     C     1             do        3             x
     C                   eval      y = x * 27
     C                   EndDo 

Becomes:

     C/FREE
       for x = 1 to 3;
       y+=x;
       EndFor;
      /end-free
     C     1             do        3             x
     C                   |  eval      y = x * 27
     C                   EndDo
 
But having the automatic indenting would be the bee's knees!
