Lines: 22 Ok. Here are my $0.02 worth concerning the LSP editor. I like it, generally. I think the formating is useful and convenient. I find myself wishing I had it on my IBM mainframe (Though I could simulate it, but it wouldn't be as fast or useful). I find that I like to d format my programs but that I don't have any real preference as to the format used as long as its readable. I actually think that THINK did a good job when they kept the indent value (default?) as low as they did. I am forever stymied by programs whos creator chose a tab of 8 character positions!! I don't have roving eyes that can skip half pages to find the start of the next line! I have a few gripes though and I wonder if they have been dealt with in the new LSP: 1) Can lines be split (I.e. other then at a ;)? 2) Can lines be longer then 255 chars? This is a not-uncommon ocuurence. 3) Some small display bugs that require retyping an entire line to get it to rescan correctely, have these been fixed?
