Hi there, a short while ago I uploaded a new version of the current BSF4ooRexx beta with the date "2015-08-12" in it, which incorporates quite a few, significant (internal) changes. A proper GUI install version for MacOSX got created and uploaded as well.
Here is the URL where the latest (this) beta version can be found: <https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/files/beta/20150608/> ---rony On 10.06.2015 15:25, Rony G.
