Which makes no sense to me at all. fd is passed by value but "buf" by name?
It's horribly inconsistent and unpleasant to use. The buffer HAS to be a
passed by reference (variable) as it could break REXX string length
limits or contain characters that REXX chokes on.
I can't help but think that you've made a rod for your back. REXX is
superficially simple but in my experience, which is 30 years of using
the language, it is anything but and has endless pitfalls.
