Rexx is actually pretty cool.  And while it may not be well known amongst
Unix / Linux people, there are actually a couple of high-quality open-source
implementations available for Unix/Linux.  Two that come to mind
immediately are:

Open Object Rexx (this is IBM's Object Rexx which they
open-sourced a year or so ago): <http://www.oorexx.org/>

and

Regina Rexx: <http://regina-rexx.sourceforge.net/>

If anybody cares to learn more about Rexx, see <http://www.rexxla.org>.


TTYL,
