Re: New RDi fix pack coming

As was mentioned, conversion is being supplied by Arcad and Linoma so it
too is available.
Here is Arcad's for example.

You should be able to hit the ground running with this new free form
support.
It is starting to get hard for me to go back to fixed form :-)

Nice, I can live without conversion (for now at least). I'm excited about
experimenting with the full freeform.

Thanks Vern and Edmund.

Yep - Outline view, syntax checker, verifier, pretty much everything other
than conversion and maybe new procedure/data kinds of things.

One thing that is not coming with this fixpack is converting to

full-free-form - and I don't remember if that IS coming from IBM - Arcad
and Linoma will or already have plugins to do that.

I'm intrigued about Craig Rutledge's tool for converting to free - not a

plugin, but present tool could be changed - he gives you the source for
each utility.

I'm at a CAAC meeting in Rochester - yesterday we heard of fix pack
that brings RDi to 9.0.1

This includes support for the new full free-format RPG IV syntax.

There are other goodies, as well.

We were given permission to spread the news, and this is coming out on

December 13th.

For free-format support, of course, you'll need the PTF to activate it

in the compiler.

Enjoy!
