   Subject: Announcing the Release of ooRexx 5.0.0

   The ooRexx (open object Rexx) team is pleased to release ooRexx 5.0.0 and 
make it generally
   available to the world via the web from
   <https://sourceforge.net/projects/oorexx/files/oorexx/5.0.0/>.

   ooRexx is the object-oriented successor to IBM's famous Rexx language which 
remains easy to
   learn, easy to program in and easy to maintain, thanks to keeping up the "human 
centric" design
   principle. The "Rexx Language Association (RexxLA)" 
<https://www.rexxla.org/> is the owner of
   the source code, originally donated by IBM in 2004 and improved considerably 
and continuously
   since then.

   Rexx programs can be run unchanged with ooRexx 5.0.0 and can be gradually 
augmented with the
   many beneficial new features ooRexx 5.0.0 brings to the table, like 
redirectable commands from
   and into running Rexx programs, new and helpful classes like the RexxInfo 
class, new ability to
   annotate programs (packages), routines, classes, methods and attributes, 
ability to easily
   define multiline strings (e.g. for SQL statements, boiler plate text, base64 
encoded binary data
   ...) and many more.

   Among the notable improvements are numerous bug fixes compared to its 
predecessor ooRexx 4.2.0,
   noticeable speed improvements over ooRexx 4.2.0 and much more useful 
functionality. Please
   consult the file docs/CHANGES.txt for more information.

   After downloading ooRexx 5.0.0 and installing take a look into the samples 
directory which
   contains programs that demonstrate some of its capabilities. The Windows 
version has numerous
   examples that demonstrate how to interact with Microsoft Office, Apache Open 
Office/LibreOffice
   and many of the Windows infrastructures taking advantage of their OLE 
(Object Linking and
   Embedding) interfaces.

   To get more information and support you can use the ooRexx Sourceforge project's 
"Tickets" or
   "Mailing Lists" infrastructure.

   In addition you may consider joining the non-profit "Rexx Language Association 
(RexxLA)" for
   free at <https://www.rexxla.org/members/index.rsp?action=join> where Rexx 
experts of all kind of
   Rexx interpreters on all important operating systems are already members, 
including the language
   creators and implementers.

   So download the brand new ooRexx 5.0.0 and start to explore it! Have fun and 
enjoy!

   The ooRexx team, cyberspace, December 23rd, 2022

   P.S.: Please, if you can, make all of your friends, all of your colleagues 
and the media you are
   interested in aware of this great event for ooRexx 5.0.0 (a short e-mail is 
quickly done)!
