Feature: Free format conversion to check record length #118

Open DavidShears opened 4 years ago

DavidShears commented 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When using the "convert to free-format RPG" option the record length of the source member isn't being taken into consideration.

So, for example, I'm using a source file created via: CRTSRCPF SHEARSD/AUDITSRC 112 so I have a maximum record length of 100 characters.

If I try to convert the following eval statement into free-format it returns a single line, which won't fit within the 100 character confines.

This then means manually changing each statement to fit within the confines.

Describe the solution you'd like Ideally either a setting so I can change the maximum row length for free-format conversions, or something so that this is automatically handled (perhaps since the save/display have identified the maximum length the conversion could be fed that information?)

Hey David. This is an awesome idea.

I can look into this!
