The split line via enter does not work correct on mij pc. when hitting enter with the cursor just before 'THRU' :

i get the following :

THRU W12-EXIT

with the cursor just below the 'P' of PERFORM. The cursor is on the correct place, but i expect the code to follow and also start at the cursor position. Any idea how I can fix this?

The LPEX editor default behavior is: splitLine The splitLine action splits the current line at the current cursor position and moves the cursor to the beginning of the new line. If

the actionRepeat parameter is positive, the action is repeated actionRepeat times. https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSQ2R2_14.1.0/com.ibm.lpex.doc.user

The z Systems LPEX editor preference is set:

Split (Alt+S): Select the action that occurs when you press the Alt+S key combination. Default: The default LPEX behavior. The action depends on the LPEX profile that is
being used. COBOL Split Line: The split line action is aware of COBOL syntax.

It can be changed in the Preferences > LPEX Editor > z Systems LPEX editor > COBOL Parser.
