Martin,

Yes, highlight source, right-click and select "Convert Selection to Free Form".

It is not as good as the Help-System RPG Toolbox or the Arcard Transformer. But, it does basic conversion to free. It does not convert last Century "H", "F", "D" & "P" punch-card code. You need a third part tool for that.

Try this Free-one:

I have been using the RPG Toolbox from Help-Systems for over 22-years, I recommend that one. It is not free however.

Thankfully, my present and past employers had already bought this wonder RPGLE productivity tool! <Joy Joy>

if you have extra time, write your own conversion! :)


PS. You can auto indent your RPGLE Free code with Ctrl+Shift+F. It is not as good as thirdparty one, but over all NOT Bad! Try it out, and see how you like it. It might work for most of your purposes!

Does SEU/PDM have "convert to free form"?

Hey Craig - you just listed my most-used actions here - big +1!

I might add another kind of compare - the delta icon on the tool bar
lets you specify a member to compare with - I find it useful for
showing a code reviewer the things I have changed from the production
version. It is like the Code/400 compare with the red and yellow
colors for change and original. And I've found Ctrl-L and Ctrl-C
useful here for selective merging.
