I'm surprised at this question, but it is not unexpected. (-: I respect you a lot so I'll humor you with my thought process on this.
Why not? Why have Xpeditor when you have READY TRACE in COBOL? I'm just curious if it can be done and if so how. An interactive environment is much easier than well placed TRACE ?I commands and so on. I thought it would be a cool thing to do. It's a thought experiment. If one were to write a Rexx debugger, how would one do that? It's something no one else has done (I don't think). Seriously, I'm surprised you ask this. Why have z/XDC or Xpeditor or AbendAid when you have dumps? Anyway, I was just asking a hypothetical question, sort of. It's a project I would like to do, but I'm not sure I can do it. Just asking, that's all.

I've spent a couple of evenings digging through the Rexx Reference, but so far I've not stumbled on a way to do it. Or even if it can be done. Given that REXX supports interactive debugging, why? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
