** Rexx:  The King of Programming **

I am attracted to Rexx because it is available
on my antique DOS laptop, my Palm IIIxxe, and 
my various Linux/BSD boxes.

On the old DOS boxes there is a wonderful 
thing called REXXPC88, which was actually an
extension to the COMMAND.COM shell.  It is like
having Rexx embedded in the PC.  It is very old
but is working quite good.  It revitalizes a
roomful of old equipment.  Good on DOS 3.3,
which I have a license for.

I use Jaxo Rexx for the Palm.  It seems a good
match for the older Palm Pilots...

Of course, for Linux, I just use Regina.

Except for Regina, everything I tend to use
here is really outdated software and has no
support of any kind anymore.  If you tried to
mention REXXPC88 on a Rexx discussion board, I
would guess that you would get a lot of
confusion, or a "what the..." from a grizzled
old timer.

I like the old days...
