Features
The Editor Macro is an extension to Multi-Edit to support the editing of Legacy style fixed format source files. Each fixed format COBOL source line is divided into the following areas:
- Columns 1-6 Sequence Number
- Columns 7 Indicator Area
- Columns 8-12 Area A
- Columns 12-72 Area B
- Columns 73-80 History
The history area is commonly used during program maintenance to indicate when a line was changed and by whom. The Editor Macro ensures that the history area is updated or preserved during editing. Most editing tasks are supported such as :
- Typing (with insert on/off)
- Deleting/backspacing
- Tabbing
- Clipboard operations (copy/move/delete)
- Block Operations (copy/move/delete)
- Window operations (copy/move)
- Line/Stream/column blocks
