If you EXECLOAD a file, you have effectively created a new file. Thus in the REXXTRY example there are two versions of REXXTRY around. They happen to contain the same, but that is besides the point. That is different from having a synonym.
I'm afraid the suggestion of a default name is a tad on the naive side. Let's say I invoke XEDIT through an EXEC rather than directly from the command line and then type PIPE on the XEDIT command line (or drop into subset and issue a pipeline). j.
