Re: OORexx (was: Sorting CSV data ...)

2014-04-19 Thread David Crayford
I've got a drop in replacement for all of those environments bar SDSF with Lua 
and I'll add multi-threaded programming, HTTP, websockets, XML, JSON, SOAP, 
regular expressions and a whole lot more. In a z/OS UNIX environment luaposix 
http://luaposix.github.io/luaposix/docs/index.html covers a lot more than USS 
REXX. The killer punch is that Lua executes at speeds that REXX can only dream 
of. Did I mention closures, functional programming, OO etc,etc. 

Runs perfectly on z/OS and will be available soon.

 Much of the value of Rexx is in the host command environments it
 supports.  So, how many of the following are available in OORexx?:
 
address TSO
ISPEXEC
ISREDIT
SYSCALL
SH
MVS
LINK
LINKPGM
LINKMVS
ATTACH
ATTCHPGM
ATTCHMVS
SDSF

 ???  I suppose the answer might be:
 o Any; it's a drop-in replacement for IBM's Rexx.
 o Any, if you invoke OORexx with the correct Environment Block.
  - Are ISPF EDIT macros and panel scripts in OORexx supported?
 o Any, if you code the support yourself.  Ugh!
 
 Can OORexx be invoked alike from TSO, shell, and JCL?
 
 Extra credit if OORexx and IBM Rexx can be freely mixed in
 SYSPROC/SYSEXEC.

To be honest, if I wanted to do what Vig wanted it would be in C or Assembler 
on OMVS
