As long as Rocket constantly refuses to include something better than the command line editor. You will always have people who do not shell out for anything else.

Re: [U2] Editors and environments we like to use
If I would need to change a variable in a hundreds of programs, usually required when an INCLUDE variable changes, I would use the Search and Replace. I would hope the variable is unique enough that I would still like to see every line it is reference before starting a massive change. Since my source is local via my version control project in SVN, the locking component has really no value. I would then copy my changes from my local file to the database or I would check them into SVN depending on where I am in the change process.

You could however do > that, with an inplace full screen editor Keeping this on-topic, that is one of the thousands of features in mvToolbox. The above functionality is something all of us wish we had when we're sitting in some editor X and we know the pain we face to get the information we need to just write that next line of code. My message here is that there is a solution to those problems. We can debate the aesthetics of the character UI (CUI) vs GUI, the relative productivity gains and losses, and the perceptions people have when they see one or the other. But when it comes down to it, we just need to get a job of coding business apps done. I would rather have the tools to do what I need, and debate the UI later, than to not have the functionality and therefore nothing to debate. (Doug, please don't jump in here, we've seen your ad in every other posting, this is NOT about YOUR software. Have a little respect.) For anyone who does take a look, learning mvToolbox can be a painful process. I constantly struggle to decide whether I should take the time to do something myself (like look for file usage) or whether I should learn how mvToolbox does it. I face the same problem with all developer tools. But the reward of learning it once is that development is then streamlined from that point forward. Bro Cope (author) has opened the software for free (limited time?) usage to get the software in the hands of people in order to drum up some demand for improvements. In the spirit of collaboration for "free" but not "open source" software, I've offered to help with documentation, UI, website, etc, in an attempt to help minimize some of that pain. (So far I've just written some docs, nothing else yet. I'll try to help with the website too. Eugene Perry has been working with Bro for years, as his own time permits, in the same spirit of making a contribution for a common cause.) The product is evolving. It might evolve to add a GUI (thus giving people both options), eliminating the need for us to discuss the CUI vs GUI arguments, and allowing us to focus on functionality. I encourage people to give it a shot, and focus on functionality, with the understanding that the UI _may_ evolve and that the overall product experience _will_ evolve as more people use it.

[U2] Editors and environments we like to use--digression from talking about mvToolBox.
I know several older programmers who use ED exclusively. It's incredible how quickly they can jump into code and make complex changes with just a few keystrokes. In the course of the day I use ED, a few full-screen non-gui editors (jed/vi/maybe JET or SED sometimes) and some gui editors (WED, Cache Studo and sometimes Wordpad).

With respect, I disagree. I work alongside dozens of UniVerse developers and I am in a very small minority who use a GUI based editor. The vast majority use our own custom editor, which runs on a ubiquitous 'green-screen' terminal emulator. Even those like myself who favour editing in a GUI still do all other tasks through command line. ___ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users This e-mail and any attachments are confidential and intended solely for the use of the addressee only.

[U2] Rocket technote UDT-4359 - udadmin
Can someone confirm/clarify this statement from this recent technote: "UniAdmin and the Extensible Administration Tool (XAdmin) will start udadmin_server when a user connects to a UniData server and will stop it when the user disconnects. However, it is possible to spawn the udadmin_server outside of UniAdmin and XAdmin." I thought I understood what udamin did, but now I'm not so sure. Are the only legitimate calls to udamin made via UniAdmin and XAdmin? TIA, Brad. U.S. BANCORP made the following annotations - Electronic Privacy Notice.
