Seriously, these are SAMPLES. Fiddling with this falls pretty low on my list of priorities. If the amount of effort spent obsessing over the shebang lines in the samples had been applied to building an installer, this issue would have been fixed ages ago. Rick On Fri, Nov 16, 2018 at 10:37 AM Ren

Dear developers, is the shebang #! /usr/bin/env/rexx the same as #! /usr/bin/env rexx ? The reason I ask is that I have a file WinUtils.cls where the former is present and the latter seems to be the preferred option in CMakelists.txt If I want to collect the latest/current tools used when crea
