A REXX environment is initialized by one of several means, and is
represented by a REXX environment block (macro IRXENVB). It has one or
more host command environments available to it. A host command
environment is an xyz that you can issue "Address xyz" to while
running in a given REXX environment, and is named by an entry in the
Subcommand Table (macro IRXSUBCT), which can be statically loaded and
dynamically updated (though with a performance hit). IBM's terminology
for both these is a little inconsistent, but they are clearly
different things.
