And for another I received off-list.
And a recent off-list reply disapproved of extreme abbreviations in pedagogic arenas. My interest on sort, always minimal, has dwindled, even into a negative quadrant, ever since IBM, either ignorantly or stubbornly rejected an ETR I submitted. But I remain interested in Rexx. Scott Ford's suggestion of an assembler stub interfacing to IRXJCL is promising. But what of the program fetch overhead of IRXJCL + Rexx interpreter + script in a probably tight loop? The first two might go in LPA. Bill Schoen recently posted to MVS-OE a link to a C program for invoking Rexx with the script as an argument. That might further streamline. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
