Error description
When editing ILE RPG source code with the Remote Systems LPEX Editor in Rational Developer for i (RDI) 9.6.0.9 and using Content Assist (CTRL+SPACE) to choose a code completion proposal, if the Content Assist has to split the source line to a new line because the inserted content makes the line too long; then it can incorrectly add an extra colon ':' or left parenthesis '(' character after the inserted content if the inserted content was just after such a character.
Local fix
If the extra character is added incorrectly, delete it manually.
