Sure - I understand that. But where is the nature of the mapping of output
*arguments* explained? What is the difference between an output argument
and an output variable? I guess the easy thing is to not try to use output
arguments; they are very un-Rexx-like, IMHO, whereas named variables that
are accessible to an external routine are well understood.
