No. I upgraded systems. With the new Linux, I must run ooRexx v5. And I no longer have BSF4ooRexx installed on the new system.
Running the two programs on an Ubuntu PC yields: rony@rony-linux:/mnt/root_e/DropBox/Dropbox/xfer/orx/ruurd$ rexxtry.rex REXX-ooRexx_5.0.0(MT)_64-bit 6.05 3 Aug 2022 rexxtry.rex lets you interactively try REXX statements.

So the problem vanished on ooRexx v5 then? Excellent if that is the case. +1 to release.
