Hi Mihael, please read my "too much" as the result of some reflections:
"some docs for programs and procedures attached to the prototypes"
docs - any "standard" format?
attached - How, using a naming convention?
attached - Where, again using a standard location?
Probably the easiest way (not for me anyway) is developing a plug-in. Please note "Probably".
Instead my basic idea about "if we hover over the program/procedure in code and if we use code completion" is having something standard and SELF-CONTAINED provided in the prototype. The compiler problem, maybe, is making the comment available in other places rather than only in RDI/WDSC. (i.e PGMINFO(*PCML : *MODULE)) .

Hey, just think about what was written:
I'm asking just for the tools (RDi) to parse the documentation and display it on hover and you are asking for a change in the compiler (because I think that would mean a new keyword) AND a change in the tools (RDi) to display the info.
So now what is too much?!

Though it would be nice to have some docs for programs and procedures attached to the prototypes and have it on-the-fly in RDi and hopefully without having to manually refresh the outline every time which really sucks. So we can have the docs of the program/procedure if we hover over the program/procedure in code and if we use code completion.
-------------------------
Docs maybe is too much, even a simple keyword COMMENT('Some help text') will be GREAT.
Just a dreamer .
