I like to use uppercase keywords in VB and PowerBasic. Are there flags or options that I can set in .coder files to force keywords to be automatically uppercased?
Thanks,

An automatic uppercase option available in .coder files?

Note... Autocompletion is not what I'm looking for.
Autocompletion is good if you are looking for the correct spelling of the keyword that you are trying to enter... and if you select the correct keyword, it does insert it as uppercase.
But Autocompletion is actually very distracting if you know what you are typing.
Being forced to hit [tab] or [enter] on every keyword, just to get the keyword to uppercase, is not a solution for me.
That's why I am wondering if there is an option somewhere in the .coder properties that will just automatically uppercase the keywords as I type them in?
I've entered all of the keywords in uppercase in the .coder file - and although they get the correct color formatting, they do not display in uppercase like they are in the .coder file.
Thanks!

I just made sure again.
I tried each of those three settings, in all (possible) combinations:
I exited after each setting and then relaunched AkelPad.
It still does not uppercase any of my keywords.

Code: Select all
Case : Y Y Y N N
Save : N Y Y Y Y
Inherit : N N Y N Y
