Many moons ago when I was a sysprog, I wrote a couple of REXX external 
functions in assembler called "STEMPUSH" and "STEMPULL" that allow you to pass 
REXX stems between execs in the same address space. It does this by placing the 
REXX variable name and value into a dataspace "stack" and then you pass the 
dataspace "token" as a parameter between the execs (STEMPUSH places items on 
the stack and STEMPULL retrieves them). 

As far as I know the code still works and you can find it on the CBT tape 
website (www.cbttape.org).

Subject: REXX INCLUDE ?

     Hi

Some REXX questions:

Any kind of REXX INCLUDE feature i.e include a REXX "copybook"  ?
We need some large "initialized" data areas,  stems.
What is the  best or  fastest way to do this?
