IBMiCmd is a suite of ILE tools for Notepad++. It's a free plugin for Windows that allows developers to work with their IBM i and write modern C, C++ and RPG (as well as CL, COBOL and any other ILE language). IBMiCmd uses the GPL licence. You are able to use it personally or internally at your own business.

Why IBMiCmd? 💁

  • It's fast. The goal for IBMiCmd is speed and reliability. Modern development means quick compiles, no program stutter and no CPU hogging.

  • Agnostic. We support development with any ILE language, be it CL, RPG, COBOL, C, C++ - we provide the ability to code in it all. Error listing and syntax highlighting is available for all ILE languages.

  • Easy UI. While providing rich functionality, we also provide a nice, user-friendly UI. Even your kids could use it.

  • Free. One of the main purposes of IBMiCmd is that it's the free and open-source option. We are open to PRs too!

Getting started 😎

Prerequisites

  • At least .NET Framework 4.6.1 - download the latest version here.
  • C, C++ and COBOL highlighting is available in Notepad++ by default. To add free-format RPG and CL highlighting, you will need to manually add the syntax highlighting which can be found in this repository.
