There are tradeoffs in all this formatting stuff, seems to me. I think the way SEU did it had some justification that is probably written up in a design doc at IBM. Maybe the idea was that labels went to the left and that pushed the command to the right. Pure idle speculation on my part. ;-) I do like putting each parameter on its own line - quite readable. But it results in a longer, larger source member, and in very large source (who would ever get a CL this large?) one could theoretically run out of room. Not an issue in any real-life situation I can think of. The division to separate lines does not, however, extend to parameters that are lists. Here is an example CRTPGM PGM(LIBRARY/PROGRAM) + MODULE(LIBRARY/MODULE01 LIBRARY/MODULE02 LIBRARY/MODULE03 + LIBRARY/MODULE04) + BNDSRVPGM(LIBRARY/SRVPGM01 LIBRARY/SRVPGM02 + LIBRARY/SRVPGM03) I might like to see something like CRTPGM PGM(LIBRARY/PROGRAM) + MODULE(LIBRARY/MODULE01 + LIBRARY/MODULE02 + LIBRARY/MODULE03 + LIBRARY/MODULE04) BNDSRVPGM(LIBRARY/SRVPGM01 + LIBRARY/SRVPGM02 + LIBRARY/SRVPGM03) Of course, pretty-print is almost as religious a topic as OS's. ;-) Vern -------------- Original message -------------- > Thanks.
