I've been watching your test cases and interleaving commits to the
interpreter and could see that was what you were doing.  <grin>

I like the ability to use Table objects in the external methods /
functions rather than stems.  I especially like being able to return a
Table object.

However, if you think using SendMessage is just as efficient in the C
/ C++ code, then removing the Table APIs seems fine to me.

What happens when you are returning a Table object from a API method?
It would be returned as a RexxObject.  Would it just then work as
expected in the Rexx code?  Is that less efficient?
