Greetings Rick,

I appreciate the correct impression confirmation.

Is XALAN not available on other platforms?

I am thankful,

These files are only needed if you are making changes that require adding new error messages. To build the new error message files, you need to run the build on windows and have xalan installed. The newly generated files then get checked into the build and windows and xalan are no longer required.

    Greetings Rick / team,

    Are these files that XALAN produces needed for ooRexx to work on other 
platforms, or uniquely needed for Windows?

    The sort of dependency I am thinking of is building on Windows would be 
required first to get the XALAN run, then other platform builds would be 
successful. Is that what is implied?

    I am thankful,
