I just wonder what SEU users are going to do when they have to maintain/review code written by an RDi'er if the code exceeds column 100. And how many of us will be impacted by the edict that we are not allowed to exceed what the SEU'ers can maintain?

PDM has a limit of 240 characters that it can process, which is a record
length of 252. CTRSRCPF allows record lengths up to 32,766 which CAN be
edited in RDi and for the full length in the new regime. Before the change
upcoming, even with a longer record, only positions 8-80 could be used for
code.
Vern, I'm all for the idea of more than 80, but if I ever had to read code statements longer than about 120, I'd require a wrap-around panoramic monitor (the single 21" flat screen just wouldn't cut it). Let's keep it within a comfortable field of view, please. Just because we can doesn't mean we should.
