I think you should change the name

net-oo-rexx.linux.x86_64-portable-release-20250503.zip
Ubuntu is not the only Linux in the world, contrary to popular
"wisdom". :-)
Yes, I know.
Are you use that the ubuntu2404 version works on all the Linux platforms? If so
I will rename it.
If not the indicator "ubuntu2404" would be important as any Linux owner would know whether his
distribution is compatible or not. If not, then the user can download the portable ooRexx for his
distribution and unzip it into the net-oo-rexx directory to replace the Ubuntu binaries.
So (like I also followed up on your last suggestion), are you sure that ooRexx compiled on Ubuntu
2404 will run on all Linux distros?

"net-oo-rexx" is a zip archive that you can carry around on an USB stick,
unzip, run "setup" and then use ooRexx with powerful packages and NetRexx
on that computer without a need to install ooRexx or NetRexx systemwide!
(Hint: NetRexx and the BSF4ooRexx package for ooRexx need Java installed to
function.)
The "net-oo-rexx" package comes in three versions: for 64-bit Windows, for
Intel and ARM ("universal") MacOS, and for 64-bit Linux.
*Important*: before unzipping, please follow the instructions to
de-quarantine the zip-archives on Windows and MacOS.
Here the link to the the "symposium edition" (it includes the ooRexx 5.1.0
release to be officially announced yet and the NetRexx 5.01 release):
<https://wi.wu.ac.at/rgf/rexx/tmp/net-oo-rexx-packages> ... please read
It is called "symposium edition" because this version of net-oo-rexx will
enable you to immediately check out what gets introduced and explained at
this year's International Rexx Symposium which will start with tutorials on
Sunday, May 4th, 2025, at 13:15 CEST.
If interested you can join the symposium in person (if being close enough
to Vienna) or via Zoom.
* The symposium's registration page:

Have fun with "net-oo-rexx" and the symposium!
