You don't actually need to move the newly built files into your rexx_home to use this. Just CD into "..\trunk\Win32dbg" after the build and you should be able to run the new rexx version directly from there without having to touch your installed one. Do a "taskkill /F /IM rxapi.exe" to kill the existing rxapi process, then "rexx -v" to verify you have the new version. You'll want to do another taskkill when you're done working with the new build so your default setup picks up the matching version.
