>but I think it is good practice - it protects you from problems if you happen to ADDRESS another environment when you next change the REXX exec. Admittedly this might not be a big issue with simple edit macros - but in larger REXX execs you can easily shoot yourself in the foot.
I disagree. I usually set up a 'default' addressing environment at the front of my EXEC's, and then handle exceptions, unless I have large chunks of statements in another environment. Also, if you are a fan of indentation and white-space, you can end up with a lot of continued statements if you insist on putting address statements in front of each command. -teD Me? A skeptic?
