In a message dated 98-01-27 11:09:28 EST, you write: << REXX on a PC? I think I have heard (very dimly) of this (there was something called REXX-88 or some such name when I was at IBM) but I haven't used REXX for years! What does it run on? Will it run on a Compaq 386? An IBM AT? >> any machine that can run pcdos can have rexx installed as part of the dos upgrade. according to my dos 7 manual, any machine xt and above with 512k or greater can accomodate it. david (pcdos7 user)
