Oh but it DOES have that, just not called "literals". There is "Numeric"
and "Numeric2" for numeric literals appearing in different places. Also
"User Symbol" and "User Symbol2" for character literals. I know because I
had to find them to make them black (personally I hate them being
colored). For the SQL flavor, there are "SQL Numeric Constant" and "SQL
Character String Constant".

Why is that I can format string Literals inside of CLLE, but not inside
RPGLE?

I am talking about this preference:

Windows>Preference>Lpex Editor>parsers>parser Styles

CL has "Literals" for color formatting...

While RPG, ILERPG & ILERPGSQL does not have the option for "Literals"...

I would think there might be RFE. If there is one, I would certainly vote
for that!

To see my literal in a different color, was the first thing I loved about
color syntax. It is the most used feature in my other tools. It just seems
strange that LPEX for RPG does NOT have this... <Big Frown>

I am stuck using good old NotePad++ to edit my complex literal statements.
