Yes, now I recall: this was a file that Enrico sent with a minimized (cleansed) 
version of the
Makefile to create a fat BSF4ooRexx library. (Actually, I updated the older 
Makefile and use that as
it does not have a dependency on oorexx-config. As I rarely have to compile 
BSF4ooRexx.cc I keep
forgetting such dependencies myself which causes some time-losses and 
frustrations on my side on a
regular basis. :) )

Whenever an overhaul of CMake is in the works one thing I would like to propose 
is to also allow for
creating a "stick" version of the ooRexx interpreter and make that downloadable 
as well. It would
have the benefit that anyone interested can download it and get it running on 
the target system
without installation. (A first excercise in that direction was done for last 
year's Rexx symposium.
It would use an already installed version of ooRexx and with the help of a 
little Rexx script create
a stick version of the Windows, Linux and MacOS version.)
