Robert / George,
when editting a *.cbl file, if I enter a RESET ALL primary command then all the entries in the command stack are gone. (I.E. a RETRIEVE command does not restore any commands). It shows the message "No saved RETRIEVE commands available".
I would not think that a RESET command should remove all the commands from the RETRIEVE stack.
A "nice to have feature" would be a "RETRIEVE LIST" primary command which would open a popup window containing all the saved commands and let you choose one. This is one feature that SPF/SE had that I miss in SPFLite.
Thanks for all the work that you put into supporting / enhancing SPFLite, it's becoming my editor of choice.

chaat: Robert: The key here is the RESET contained ALL. The cmd. stack is only reset when either ALL or RETRIEVE itself is coded.
Robert: I believe the cmd. stack clearing was added at one point when you requested a whole variety of RESET options added "to be complete". It was left out of the default set of options used when only RESET is coded. I've no problem removing it from ALL, but my inclination is to leave it alone. We could make it so that only a specific RETRIEVE request would clear it, but then that makes ALL into an 'almost-ALL', which isn't a good idea either.
As to the pop-up, you know my aversion to turning SPFLite into a pop-up-box happy program. I've always felt it should stick to being a mostly KB oriented thing.
