That's not the point. There is a significant difference between seeng
the source code in your favorite editor or in the source code window
of your debugger's GUI or even some IDE, versus having to run
additional commands in a separate window.

Sorry, but when reading the source code or when revioewing patches I
cannot paick up any next funtion pointers, I'm stuck with reading the
source code only.

The use of COBOL cripples the mind; its teaching should, therefore,
be regarded as a criminal offence.
