I can't figure out from the chapter how to *do* what they are talking
about, perhaps because I have no experience as a TSO sysprog (as opposed
to as a TSO and Rexx user). Question: if I would like to take a Rexx
exec and make a "compressed" (in the sense of this chapter -- removing
comments and so forth) copy how do I do so? (I want a compressed copy
that I can "do things with," not just a copy cached internally somewhere
in TSO.)
The compression described in that section of the TSO/E REXX Reference
applies only to compressing REXX execs that TSO/E puts into VLF.
TSO/E does not supply a way for you to make a compressed exec
automatically and store it elsewhere, as far as I know.
Why do you want to compress an exec, and what kind of "things" do you
then want to do with it? Perhaps you have another choice, such as
compiling the exec using the REXX compiler (if you've licensed it).
