It depends. TSO will read them from SYSEXEC and run them without rexx in the comment. z/OS UNIX Services, in my limited testing, requires rexx to be lower case where any other environment/platform could care less about the case. So RExx, REXX, REXx, rexX, reXX, rEXX, rexx in a comment from TSO and read from SYSPROC will all work. Any of those or even not using it from TSO SYSEXEC, and the PC based versions I use, do not need rexx in a comment. As was pointed out, if you get an IRX message than TSO already figured out it is rexx and the comment is unnecessary.
