PROGRESS-SOURCE Attribute

How an editor widget wraps lines of 4GL source code that are longer than the widget’s display width.

Data Type: LOGICAL

Access: Readable/Writeable

Applies To: Editor

Set this attribute to TRUE when reading Progress 4GL source code into the widget. This preserves the 4GL syntax for the Progress compiler.

When set to TRUE, the editor widget splits long lines by putting a tilde ( ~ ) and hard return at the end of the display line and continuing the text with column 1 of the next display line. The line wrapping occurs only when a READ-FILE( ) or INSERT-FILE( ) method is used to bring text into the widget. When set to FALSE, the editor widget splits long lines by inserting a HARD-RETURN before the last word and moving the last word onto the next display line. FALSE is the default setting.
