Hi John

RDi has its own line numbers, which are just consecutive. So far as I can tell, there is no attempt to reconcile the numbers.

It can display the SEU sequence numbers - there's an option for that. And the SEU sequence number area can be used for SEU line commands. Personally I don't use the actual sequence numbers, except as a place to put the line commands - those are still very powerful.

I just tried - in SEU I can put a sequence number in that area and the source will move to that sequence number. In RDi I discovered I can type a number, but it goes to the LINE number, not the SEU sequence number. Might be an option.

A favorite in SEU for me - space over leading zeroes and Enter will also position to that line - not available in RDi - and I've never missed it.

In RDi the sequence number area is called the prefix area - and the sequence numbers are display-only.

F1 for help in that area is instructive - many of the same line commands as SEU and some new stuff, so far as I can tell, and some not there but handled elsewhere.

Cheers
Vern

I don't know whether RDi is like SEU in that it uses the embedded line numbers unless there's a conflict, or whether RDi is providing its own sequential line numbers, independent of the source PF. John Y.
