M/L Editor modification
       Who hasn't praised the use of M/L Editor by Clayton Walnum when entering all those data statements? However, being a fairly good typist, I had trouble getting used to one feature. I could not get used to seeing a comma and pressing the RETURN key. Nor did I want to. That dilemma prompted this letter and the following solution.
    Changing the M/L Editor code to include the following will enable the user to press the comma or RETURN key interchangeably. Now I no longer get confused.

25 CMMA=44
330 IF A<>RETRN AND A<>CMM A
AND A<>BACKSP AND (A<48 OR
A>57) THEN 320

335 IF (A=CMMA OR A=RETRN) AND
 =0 AND X>1 THEN 350

 40 IF (((A=RETRN OR A=CMMA)
 ND NOT EDIT) OR A=BACKSP) AND
 =0 THEN 320

 50 IF A=RETRN OR A=CMMA THEN
 OKE 752,1:? " ":RETURN
