Editor wish

Hi,

Not sure if a wish has already been raised but from a newbie viewpoint (as I am
to dBase ... but finding it fun :-) ) it would be good to have a feature whereby
as you are typing in code you get popup hints/suggestions on command syntax or
parameters.  

I suppose in a way similar to Microsofts Intellisense that they use in VB etc..
however the difference here would be I'm not worried about code-completion more
around getting the arguments hinted as I am coding.

A second wish which is less important to me, but would be useful is to have
code-folding within the code whereby blocks of code can be hidden/shown.

Regards,

Hi Jonathan.
QAID 266 was issued regarding similar issues.
I put in your suggestions and re-submitted the QAID.
I also put you in the me too list.

Thanks, Kathy

Thanks, much appreciated

Look in third-party-tools => dBase editor

It's a great free editor for dBase
