I am attempting to solve a problem I have with some special files that
get used to drive some work under z/OS.
So I thought the best thing to do is write the REXX code to run under
Windows. So when I execute the code, REXX comes back and says:
Error 13 running "fully qualified path and file name", line 1: Invalid
character in program
Error 13.1 Invalid character in program "('ff'X)"
[Where "fully qualified path and file name" is the actual fully
qualified Window's file name]
I can not find any doc for "Error 13" (I have the manual for Regina REXX
printed and as a PDF). And I'm not seeing any odd characters in this
file (editing it with NOTEPAD).
Can anyone give me a clue as to where these errors are documented (I've
been to sourceforge, no joy. No joy with http://www.rexxla.org/ either).
Even better, what would cause this to think there is an X'FF' byte in
this record (the following is actually the first several records)?
/*
Read CONFIG files for QC and insert today's date as needed.
This initial area is to define all the things that must be
set up for the rest of the exec to work. In particular the
names of files and the "handle" to associate them with.
