It's my personal preference to break multi-lines up. I just like it better that way :)

When I saw the screen shots of your project I thought "What a neat idea to break up Applesoft listings by making a colon act as a new line command." I might use that idea myself someday.

But, now that he has enabled us to turn off the other 2 panels, it isn't necessary. We can now see the entire line without breaking them up at all.

Well, you shouldn't even need to turn off any other panels. If the text box he uses supports it, all he needs to do is tell it not to do word wrap and make sure there is a horizontal scroll bar so you can scroll left and right.

I like making the colon act like a new line because it puts each statement on a line of its own which makes following what the program is going to do much easier. It has nothing to do with the physical space it takes up on screen.

Well, you are right, but, it's become a moot point, being that Ciderpress does everything I need for now. This new program is cool for what it is, but it ain't yet, so when it gets there, let me know and I'll take another look. ;-)
