 Hi Franz,

 Nice to hear that you want to try out ooRexx!

 Indeed the package for OpenSuse (and all other packages I think) is
 unsigned so you would need to ignore the warning when it arrives. The steps
 would be (assuming the installer is in Downloads):

 noob:~/Downloads> *sudo zypper install
 ooRexx-5.0.0-12583.opensuse15.x86_64.rpm*
 [sudo] password for root:
 Loading repository data...
 Warning: Repository 'Update repository of openSUSE Backports' appears
 to be outdated. Consider using a different mirror or server.
 Warning: Repository 'Update Repository (Non-Oss)' appears to be
 outdated. Consider using a different mirror or server.
 Reading installed packages...
 Resolving package dependencies...

 The following NEW package is going to

Hi Franz,

An alternative for the shebang would be

#!/usr/bin/env rexx

(Like this, the space is intentional)

You need to google /usr/bin/env to see what is going on, the Linux-way is a bit 
different from the Windows-way, steep learning curve, been there, done that.

 Hi,
 
 Suse is one of the most unproblematic/stable platforms for ooRexx, I have 
 hardly ever seen a problem in the testing so go ahead and do not hesitate 
 to report back any problem you find (I bet one bottle of beer that you 
 won’t find any :-) )
 
 Try to ignore the “Beta” in the name of the rolling release, it is solid 
 as a rock in my experience. Since 5.0.0 was so long in the coming, a 
 number of minor things were missed out in the release, mostly in the 
 documentation area. All those things are ironed out in 5.1.0. Installation 
 procedure is exactly the same. Good luck.

For Rexx on all Linux the shebang line would be

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Please help: how can i configure Open Object Rexx 5.1 in OpenSuse Leap 15.4

2023-05-12 Thread ooRexx 
Hi,

I am not sure I understand the question. Once you have installed ooRexx it 
should work out of the box, there is nothing to configure on the ooRexx side, 
you just call it with rexx myprogram.rex, you can leave out the extension so 
rexx myprogram suffices. Similar to how you call a Python program. Be aware 
that there are no GUI features for any other implementation than Windows 
(ooDialog), it is all done on the command line for all the Linuxes and in macOS.

If you mean that you want to be able to “click” the program to start it from a 
Graphical interface you could try to change the rules for how a certain 
extension is handled in OpenSuse as explained here 
, but 
I am no expert in how this works out you will have to figure that out yourself. 
Hope it helps.

Hälsningar/Regards/Grüsse,
P.O. Jonsson

Re: [Oorexx-devel] Please help: how can i configure Open Object Rexx 5.1 in OpenSuse Leap 15.4

2023-05-12 Thread Franz Marx 
Hi, Mr. Jonson!
First of all: the Installation worked with your detailed advice, of course!

But One thing I still miss:
how can I *configure* the *Open Rexx Version 5.1.0* within OpenSuse Leap
15.4 ?
Like in Windows, my *.rex program should be executed immediately.
i am sorry to be such inexperienced to bore you with this question 蘿
I only find *Rexxtry within the App-Listing*  (that works, of course)

regards
Franz
