Re: jpex editor and embedded SQL -- WDSCI-L

There are 3 "split" functions you can set to a key. "split" takes everything from the cursor to the end of the line and puts it at the start of a new line. Alt-s already does this, Alt-j joins them up again.

"splitLine" does something similar, except that in RPG, e.g., it starts the data under the specification column of the new line.

"splitAndShift" puts the data directly under its former location. I like this one, I think.

BTW, case matters - "splitandshift" does not work.

I would try them out first - go to the command line below the editor window and type

set keyAction.enter split

then

set keyAction.enter splitLine

then

set keyAction.enter splitAndShift

and see what you like. Once you settle on one, go to Preferences->LPEX Editor->User Key Actions, where you can set up your defaults. Put the word "enter" in the Key bos and one of the splitting actions in the Action box and click on the "Set" button.

If you want to see the actions you can use, put the cursor in either the Key or the Action box, press F1. There will be a link to the help that lists the actions.

Good luck

Also, where can I find the setting that causes 'enter' to break a line
in half rather than start a new line leaving the one you're on alone?
Thanks,
