James,
please lookup rexxpg.pdf, chapter 9, Rexx C++ Application Programming
Interfaces.
There you will find the C++ APIs documented, and among the documentation
you will find the new options and there the option named
DIRECT_ENVIRONMENTS which supplies a context for the purpose you need.
In the stream methods arrayout and arrayin where you can specify CHARS
or LINES, there is an inconsistency with most other methods in ooRexx,
in that the argument is case sensitive.
You can specify 'C', but not 'c'. You can specify LINES but not lines.
It is not documented one way or the other
Even using Abbrev() is inconsistent with other Rexx option usage. It
really only look at the first character (in a caseless manner, of
course).
I think this should be changed.

Okay, I'll change that.

In the documentation for .Stream~supplier, it says:
Returns a Supplier object for the stream containing the remaining
stream lines and linenumber positions
for the stream.
Containing the *remaining stream lines, led me to expect that after
reading 3 lines of a 18 line file, and then getting a
Well, your expectation certainly matches mine. I don't believe the
implementation of this has been touched in any of the releases, so it
might very well be buggy.

I might also add that the bug you see in the 3.2.0 version was
introduced right before 3.2.0 shipped. Given that nobody has opened a
bug report against this, I suspect we can probably fix how this works
without breaking many programs :-) I suspect the most difficult part
will be ensuring that

Sure...though the code for the supplier is written entirely in ooRexx
code if you'd like to try tackling this one. The code is in
StreamClasses.orx.
