Re: Easy Indenting?

You can do this with Eclipse Monkey, if you have a good grasp of
JavaScript. I muddled through it to create a very basic mixed sentence
case converter.

See Joe Pluta's article on creating Eclipse Monkey scripts:
http://www.mcpressonline.com/websphere/wdsc/introducing-eclipse-monkey.h
tml

Using Google brings up a few references to other's scripts and articles.


See the article by Joe to install Eclipse Monkey but if you cannot get
Eclipse Monkey to install using the Update Manger via Help (like me) you
have to obtain the product from another system that can download via
Update Manager and then transfer the appropriate items to your system.

To load this script in to WDSC/Eclipse, copy all the code including the
"special" markers to the clip board. In WDSC/Eclipse, choose the menu
Scripts | Paste New Script. To run my script below, you must select
text (not block select for this script), go to menu Scripts | RPG |
To_mixed_case

I honestly have no real help for anyone wanting to venture into this
area since I am not a JavaScript programmer and I really do not have the
time "at work" that I can spend learning JavaScript in order to code
Eclipse Monkey scripts.

It would be nice if this could be done in the editor. We use a
home-grown
indentation utility that runs on the i via a user option and works well,
but
it's a nuisance to have to save and close the member, run the utility,
and
then open the member again. The formatting IBM provides for free-format
SQL
works pretty well, despite a few rough edges, and of course the CL
formatter
is decent, too - it would be nice to see them provide a similar facility
for
RPG.

Is there an option to easily re-indent (or reformat) a section of

This is something I would really like too.

I really like the ability to reformat code (based on rules) in the

Java

perspective ... be nice if LPEX could do something similar.
