A coworker still spends parts of some days drawing lines on a printout to figure out if/do blocks. Of course, I tell him that if he coded in free format it would be a lot easier too. But, sadly, we have a lot of fixed format code (even more sadly, some written this year).


Maybe your coworker doesn't know about compiling with INDENT('|') to get the C specs printed with indentation in the compile listing.

1 C 1 ifeq 1
2 C 'ick' |dsply
3 C |do 3
4 C 'ew ew' ||dsply
5 C |enddo
6 C endif
7 C return

Even easier, in RDi, you can click "Show Indentation" in the "Source" menu to see an indented view of the source.
