Editor save actions

The Save Actions feature allows for selected actions to occur automatically while a file is saved. The actions that are performed are defined by the Save Actions preference.
You can specify save actions for the PL/I source files and include files separately. If save actions is enabled, the actions that are performed during a save are defined by Formatter preference.
When you save a file in the PL/I Editor, the following sequence occurs:
  1. Real-time syntax checking completed
  2. Formatting is applied to the file
  3. Trailing white spaces are removed
  4. File contents are saved
  5. Preprocessor statements are identified
A progress bar shows the status of the save process.

After the save action is complete, a single Undo command can be used to remove all formatting and white-space removal changes.
