The "Flashlight icon" is sort of neat, but it only shows references from outline-view. It will not show if that field is used in a comment line.
I personally would prefer that it highlight everywhere. Rather than just the outline view. But, I understand why they probably set it up that way...
I use NotePad++, and it highlights the selection EVERYWHERE. No need to click on a flashlight icon. But, I know LPEX is different.
Regardless, it is still a very nifty feature!

1) I get 82 lines of code in RDi. What do you get in a 5250 session? 16 or 19 depending on if you're at 27x132 or 24x132.
2) Ctl/M or Ctl/shift/o for code blocks/nesting.
3) Outline.
4) Flashlight icon to highlight a field and all occurrences.
5) F3 and left arrow to jump between where a subroutine/subprocedure is used in code and the actual subroutine/subprocedure.
Heck, if that's ALL there was it would be reason enough for me.

I guess I'm showing my age but two big monitors would be overwhelming for my eyes - it would be like sitting in the front row at the theatre.

With the cheap, cheap price of today's flat screens, you stick with a single screen?? A? 22" at that??? A pair of decent 32" are under $200.?
Set up two 32" screens, ACS, and RDi? and you are looking at magic for less than 5 months of coffee.

With a 22" monitor turned vertically, I can see ~120 lines of code. The edit-compile-debug (bugs?) cycle is a phenomenal improvement.
