Re: Outline view and old code

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use the outline a lot. Yes, I could use the filter view to see only 
the procedure starts & ends, but the outline is better.

I find the usage bits to be very helpful - I mean the lists of which 
lines the procedures, fields, etc., are used. For fields, some are 
marked with M or D (I think the latter is done), which is very like what 
the listing would have. In addition, it is easy to tell when some 
element is not being used. I've been known to have an extra parameter or 
2, and this helps me clean up things.

I do find I can move about more quickly - much faster than searching for 
a name of a procedure or whatever else.

Now if it would work with CL and RPGIII, etc.
