Hi Jon.
Thank you for the information.
Yes I agree about the ooDialog reference and I have moved on to the Programming
Guide..
Thank you

Hi Neil,
Correct me if I am wrong but most Regina Rexx programs/scripts will run as
normal in ooRexx?
There are a few very well known gotchas. This is what I remember off the top
of my head:
ooRexx checks syntax before running the code, so classic rexx interpreters can
tolerate syntax errors in lines of code that are never interpreted, whereas
ooRexx will inform you of those errors and not run.
Stem variables are implimented as objects, and as such behave slightly
differently as regards setting a default value.
Regina has some extensions (if that is the right term) that ooRexx does not and
v.v. I don't know if anyone has compiled a compatibility guide.
The ooRexx Programming Guide would be a good place to start. The ooDialog
Reference is not required reading and is rather daunting.
hope that helps,
Jon

I have been reading the ooDialog.pdf.
Some very interesting and helpful material in this document of almost 1900
pages.
I will be occupied for some time! :)

Neil,
Just download the latest version and install it. There will be a doc directory
created.

Hello,
I am new to Oorexx and I am looking for documentation on ii.
I am familiar with Rexx in general (CMS, Regina) but not OOrexx and the
concepts of OO programming.
When I goto the Oorexx home page the below url has links for PDF
documents...But the link do not work.
https://www.oorexx.org/docs/
Does anyone know where I can find the documentation mentioned at the above url?
Any suggestion will be very much appreciated.
Thank youNeil C
