> A good idea, David, but why not ooRexx? Mostly that the extensions to do the objects and some of the syntax changes don't seem natural to me. I'm more of a procedural programmer, and my exposure to Smalltalk forever exploded any desire to do OO programming. I like the simplicity and elegance of the original REXX -- it's *just* complex enough to be serious, but not too complex for my mother to learn (on a AS/400, no less).
Oxford University used to maintain a REXX port (not Regina). I might still have the source; I'd just need to compile it with the p-compiler. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
