No, we no longer support the separate runtime environment that the IBM

licensing issue rather than a technical solution. since ooRexx is now free
and open-source, there's no point in trying to maintain the limited
interpreter runtime any more.

Want excitement?
Manually upgrade your production database.
When you want reliability, choose Perforce
Perforce version control. Predictably reliable.
