This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.
Welcome to the IBM Ideas Portal (https://www.ibm.com/ideas) - Use this site to find out additional information and details about the IBM Ideas process and statuses.
IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com) - Use this site to view all of your ideas, create new ideas for any IBM product, or search for ideas across all of IBM.

Please add a code formatting feature that allows me to indent free code that has gotten out of hand.
It would be nice to have a property option to specify the start point of indenting (main line or procedures, as left as possible, inside sub routines start the number of indent characters) and an indent spaces number.
For those lines that will extend beyond the source line size, I am certain someone will want you to reformat the line into two or more additional lines.
It seems to me that if you follow CL code formatting rules then most programmers would be happy. Me I can live with folding my own code that goes over the source line size.

This RFE is a duplicate of another RFE. See http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=10189 for current status.
This RFE is consistent with our strategy and product roadmap and IBM is continuing to evaluate.
Attachment (Use case): The outter outline marker highlights the BEGSR/ENDSR pair. You can see where code was indented quite far even though it falls to the same level as one of the IFs blocks.
