Re: Shortcomings in Help in /Free

Jon, Kirk,
I could also put in a CAAC requirement - couldn't hurt.

I did the RFE a year or so ago Kurt - can't do a PMR - no customer number.

That's bugged me for a long time (well, ever since it stopped working right).

I'm just guessing, but I bet IBM will want a RFE to address this vs a PMR. But you could always try with a PMR first.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Shortcomings in Help in /Free

Am I the only one who is annoyed by the fact that Help doesn't work properly in /Free? This is a "bug" that has existed for some time now and I really don't know why it hasn't been fixed by now.

If you don't know what I mean then try this: Press F1 on a SELECT in fixed form and you will go directly to the manual page. Do the same in /Free (even if you have highlighted the SELECT) and all that happens is that you get a list of opcodes and have to select the one you want.

Same thing happens with D and F spec keywords although it is less of a pain there.
