HI = Halt Interpretation. It was introduced after Rexx, to provide a
cleaner
exit from the interpreter than HX could.
TS = Trace Start; TE = Trace End. TS allows the user to start tracing
(trace
results) after a Rexx program has begun execution.
It makes no sense to execute any of these three commands from within a
Rexx
program; their purpose (in the CMS or TSO environments) is to interact with a
running Rexx program. The question is, how do they work in the *nix or
Windows environments?
