OK, I have the C++ compiler installed together with SP1.  All went smoothly
using the Windows installers, except it made me register, but then refers to
the GUI for entering the key, but I dont appear to have a GUI, just a
command line utility.  Anyway, I have saved the key and will use it if/when
the software complains.

I have tortoise SVN loaded with the repository root at D:\My
Documents\ooRexx Project\
I have rexx 3.2.0 loaded with rexx_home at c:\oorexx

What I think I have to do next is:
a) make changes to the versioned file at  D:\My Documents\ooRexx
Project\interpreter-3.x\trunk\kernel\RexxClasses\coreclasses.orx
b) change directory to D:\My Documents\ooRexx Project\interpreter-3.x\trunk
c) type "makeorx DEBUG"
d) if the make succeeds I will have an ooRexx build somewhere that I will
have to move into rexx_home
That seems like enough steps for now.


does that sound more or less right?

thanks,

Jon
