How do you maximize productivity when writing filepro code in a 24x80?

Hi,

 

Just wondering how I can interact with filepro's 24x80 fixed screen
environment where I can only see  6 logic lines at any one time.  This is
really becoming a problem when writing complicated code.  For the past 18
years, I've grown accustomed to using large monitors and being able to see
70-100 lines at once and being able to copy and paste blocks of code.  

 

Thanks to Anzio, I am able to copy and paste segments of code, but only a
line at a time.  I also wished Anzio respected the traditional crtl-c and
ctrl-v commands instead of only the right-click menu copy/paste commands.

 

In the old days with an env variable ascii  turned on, I used Scripsit to
edit the raw prc.tables.  I really don't want to deal with all the embedded
colons.  Hard to quickly read and check its syntax.

 

Also note that my filepro is running on SCO instead of Windows, where I
imagine the prc could be easily opened in something as simple as notepad.

 

THE QUESTION IS.  How are you doing developing in filepro?  I'm sure most of
you are developing on multi large screen monitors with each running in 1920
mode.  I'm just trying to be more productive in the filepro ide and
struggling is an understatement.  

 

Thanks,

Stanley
