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. ;-)
