Here's what I was thinking: #!/usr/local/bin/rexx signal on novalue trace ?a a=5 b="6" say a+b /* 11 */ blah: say a+c /* Bad arithmetic conversion */ say bye /* BYE */ exit novalue: say c /* C */ ; c=10 say oops /* OOPS */ signal blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
