Hi Leslie,
I'm not really following what you are getting at. I never bothered with
PowerShell, maybe that's why I'm not following you.
I gave it a quick try, Rexx programs work pretty much as I would expect.

PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples> .\AnimalGame.rex
And the AnimalGame.rex example executed as normal.
PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples> vs quick.rex
PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples> quick
quick : The term 'quick' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet,
function, script file, or operable
program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify
that the path is correct and try
So, the PowerShell takes the rather Unix-like approach of not executing
programs in the current directory. Try again:
PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples> rexx quick.rex
Hello World!
What is your name?
Mark
Hello Mark!
So, my quick Rexx program runs as expected.
Try again:
PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples>
PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples>
PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples> .\quick
Hello World!
What is your name?
Mark
Hello Mark!
PS C:\work.ooRexx\wc\ooDialog\trunk\examples>
So - ooRexx works fine in PowerShell.
