Hi Gil,

Thanks for the explanation, I did run the updateCopyright.rex and found that 
there was no update in ooRexxBuild.ent (there are 16 of them, that I found at 
least):

<!ENTITY PRODUCT "Documentation">
<!ENTITY BOOKID "ooRexxBuild">
<!ENTITY YEAR "2005-2023">
<!ENTITY HOLDER "Rexx Language Association. All rights reserved.">
<!ENTITY VERSION "5.1.0">
<!ENTITY EDITION "2023.01.01 (last revised on 20221220 with r12560)">

I guess that should also be amended? Can that be done by your script?

Since I ran the program from within the work area I also got an update in 
updateCopyright.rex itself, I guess that should be excluded?

Do you want to amend that script before I go along? I will try to make a list 
of documents where a manual intervention is needed and add it to the release 
documentation after the release.

Unfortunately I will be AFK most of the day tomorrow afternoon so I cannot 
respond to any urgent  business until late in the afternoon. Just a heads-up.

Hälsningar/Regards/Grüsse,
ooRexx
