When you create a new procedure, by default there is already a comment as the first line: -* File newfex.fex. Is there a way to alter what the default information is that gets generated when you create a new procedure?

Interesting thought... I'll need to keep an eye on this to see where it's going... I might want to do the same thing... Something like "Branding". I'm thinking: A system profile setting? WFS?

I guess he wants something like what Templates do in Edit Plus.

Create a new fex, and it populates all the standard stuff, for me its a standard comment header, and basic program flow control.

I ran Agent Ransack on the C:\ibi\DevStudio77 folder and found no editable file that had "-* file" in it. This must be embedded in an executable file...

I would suggest asking Techsupport and if they say no, then ask for a new feature request
