Concur! But, in RDI we use our own special "LPEX" editor. The "LPEX" editor is unusable in Dark theme. An update of eclipse would not fix that, nor increase performance or functionality. <sad>

LPEX find/replace dialog requires you to hit the tab key FOUR TIMES. Unlike every other editor on the planet.
We cannot expect RDI to be as well design as other IDE/editors that have been on the Market for 2-4 times longer experience. Trailing edge technology.
Even SEU, you only have to hit the tab ONCE to get to the change value. (If using F14=Find/change). <LOL>
All other editors highlight the change field when you get to that. Nope, LPEX is different from every other editor on the planet. Including ECLIPSE!

At least IBM is trying to catch up to other more mature IDE/Editors. Still have a ways to go, and RDI is GETTING BETTER.
Better than SEU, but that is Low-bar comparison. <LOL>
Trailing edge technology, but slowly catching up to the competition. :)

Eclipse 2020-03 is a LONG way away from Neon. That's why I complain about it so much.

Eclipse Neon, the version of RDI we are using, was released on June 22, 2016. So, approximately 4-years old...
AS400 was release almost 4-decades ago, 1988, and it NOT SUPPORTED.
