Invoke all samples with (list with command lines at the end): test.bat xyz.rex or directly with: java com.ibm.bsf.Main -mode exec -lang rexx -in xyz.rex where "xyz.rex" denotes one of the Rexx program you wish to execute: --- PLEASE NOTE: all Rexx program with a trailing "-oo" are translated 1:1 from the classic Rexx syntax to the Object Rexx syntax. Hence, these examples may also help you to learn the Object Rexx syntax in an easy manner and actually and also shows that it really *saves* you *lots* of keystrokes! The tilde (~) is the message operator; in order to invoke the OO functions you need to "send" the names of these functions (called methods); if you need to supply arguments, then merely enclose them in brackets following the name of methods. --- Download site of the "bsf4rexx"-package and the "datergf"-package: http://nestroy.wi-inf.uni-essen.de/Forschung/rgf/Entwicklung.html Rony G.
