What You Will Learn
If you are a programmer who is still using SEU to edit your code, this session is custom-made for you. Making the switch to using RSE (Remote Systems Explorer) can greatly improve your productivity. And you can make the move for free. Come to this meeting to see why and how to make the switch. In this demonstration-filled session, Susan will show you a few of her favorite productivity features in RSE, such as:

* An interactive list of compile errors without ever opening a spool file-- click on an error to position to the line of code that needs change
* Removal of all those commented out lines of code from your editing view
* A live field and subroutine listing and cross reference, integrated with the editor
* View 2 to 3 times the number of source lines at a time
* Use your tab key to move between parts of the RPG spec without prompting
* Use Undo & Redo when editing source code!

Even if you are already an RSE user, come along to share your experiences. You may even pick up a new tip or 2. And everyone leaves with a handy RSE Keyboard Shortcut Keys reference card.
