But, Ed, it does have "DO FOREVER".
I like to joke "You gotta' love a language that does
not have a GOTO but does have a DO FOREVER"
LOL! Actually, DO FOREVER is _extremely_ useful. We have the same control
structure in HLASM called DO INF (infinite).
So somehow you've combined the two in one exec! Very
strange behavior.
Do you have a local TSO command called 'goto'? When
REXX sees a command it does not know, it passes it
to the underlying host as a host command.
That's it, Steve! The name of my test EXEC is 'GOTO'. So, it was executing
itself recursively! :-D
