Just a remark about doing a little rexxtry.rex session to test 5.0alpha a bit:
F:\download\Rexx\ooRexx\alpha500\work\bin_small>rexx rexxtry.rex
REXX-ooRexx_5.0.0(MT)_32-bit 6.05 4 Nov 2015
rexxtry.rex lets you interactively try REXX statements.
Each string is executed when you hit Enter.
Enter 'call tell' for a description of the features.
Go on - try a few... Enter 'exit' to end.
do i over eins, zwei, drei; say i;end
EINS
ZWEI
DREI
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
do i over (eins, zwei, drei); say i;end
EINS
ZWEI
DREI
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
do i over .array~of(eins, zwei, drei); say i;end
EINS
ZWEI
DREI
........................................... rexxtry.rex on WindowsNT
This is really *fun* (and great) !
