They don't, because they are REXX delimiters rather than part of the
value.

That's due to the way that he coded it, not due to EXECIO. Use the
STEM option if you want to speed it up.

The ANSI stream I/O is what you would use in classic REXX; it is only
in OOREXX for compatibility. The norm for OOREXX is the stream class
F3 = "'SUPPORT.FILE.PDS(FDQKVS)'"
Stream1 = .stream~new(F3)
do while Stream1~lines()
WS_INB = Stream1~linein()
SAY LEFT(WS_INB,79)
end
