Re: Having to kill WDSc because of fat fingering

That's interesting. Do you mean verify on the menu? Oh no,too late I clicked it and its WAY past tea time in central Europe.  Worse still, I haven't saved. I'll try syntax-check tomorrow.

Maybe you have enabled validate-as-you-type?  The "hang' may be validations being performed on your 1000's line edit rather than the upper-case change.
Even with a slowish PC that should only be a one-cup-of-tea operation..  I have found these feature so resource-hungry that I always turn them off.
Then you can continue to edit like a mad man and  use verify or the Lpex syntax-check command to validate on-demand.
