Thank you very much.
Of course, it is all about the quality of the implementation.
The implementation on a certain environment may be bad
or not very motivated ... but the language REXX should not
be blamed for this.

My bad. I didn't lookup the description of fuser. due to the "c" in the process

decimal! The "c" is a usage indicator. So drop any trailing "c" or "r" from the

This suggestion is probably unrelated to the actual issue, but I see the
odd characters ÝC¨ in your note, which I think should display as square
brackets. If your terminal emulator is currently set to use code page
