Now when the ANS COBOL 85 standard (i.e. 28 years ago) standard allow text to be in upper or lower case, a good practice is to use upper case for COBOL reserved words, and lower case for anything else. In fact, what really is used is dependent on different workshops policies. The point here, it is not up to the editor to enforce anything but leave that decision to end users.

Proposal: Remove the automatic upper-case feature when coding in the IDE.

Thanks for the detailed report. I was not aware of these best practices.

I accept the proposal. I will simply remove the ToUpperMode from the QCobolCodeEdit widget.

Fixed in the develop branch.

I've removed the ToUpperMode and fixed the parse_document_layout function to keep the original case.
