CCE OpenEdge ABL developer pack

This is an opinionated combination of

  • extensions
  • keybindings
  • and default settings for OpenEdge ABL developers at CCE.

This extension pack may be useful outside of CCE, but will change according to CCE needs.

Feel free to fork and adapt to your own needs.

My other collections without configuration remain available

  • abl-developer-pack
  • cverbiest-full-pack
