This was my point: currently all Apple users get outdated not workable ooRexx

4. We do not currently have ANY official version of ooRexx that install with
ANY Mac (Intel or M1/ARM) running OS X El Capitan (2015) (OS X 10.11) or newer.
This problem is 7 years old :-(
Dear Rony, I take that back, actually the official 64 bit version DOES work,
and installs to /opt. I think this was my tinkering way back then. But /opt is
a hidden folder on macOS so not so easy to find back once installed.
You still need to set PATH=/opt/ooRexx/bin:$PATH (and
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/ooRexx/lib/ooRexx) to make it run and there is no
uninstaller. But changing the pointer to 64 bit instead of 32 bit would be a
good thing, also if the 4.1.2 is now 10 years old (September 2012).
Just tried it from my Mac and got as download offered a "4.0 all" zip, which is also neither helpful
nor useful for Apple users. So it is really time to get a nice, working and up-to-date version of
ooRexx to the Apple table ...
