I'm currently working with code4i and RDi.  I try to do my work in code4i,
but I inevitably run into something that doesn't work and switch back to
RDi.

I'm just getting started with Copilot, but so far it's doing OK for RPG.  I
quickly learned not to let it touch my code.  It tends to put code in the
wrong place, and it struggles with END-XX statements.  I use Ask mode and
copy and paste any results I want to use.


Thanks
