Re: Printing Multiple Source Members

Back in the S/38 days, an IBM developer at COMMON suggested BFCT as a solution to a particular problem.

BFCT = Brute Force Coding Technique. Not pretty but effective.

That's been my approach to this problem too. AHK would be more elegant.

On the rare occasion that I print a source member, I really prefer the RDi output. I've been searching for a way to print multiple members but have had no luck. Any suggestions?

A brute force way is to open all members you want printed, then issue
the 'print' command on each one. Step-by step:
1) Ctrl-click each member in RSE to select the ones you want
2) Right click, Edit (to open them in the browser)
3) Escape (to get to the command line)
4) print, enter, enter (to print to the default printer)
5) Escape (to get back to the editor)
5) Ctrl-F4 to close the member

...repeat until there are no more members in the editor. This could be
automated with something like AutoHotKey.
