Hello,
I'm trying out the address ... with output replace stream 'streamName'
instruction, but it doesn't behave the way I
would expect, and there are no examples in either of the ooRexx manuals for

What I'm trying to do is issue several OS commands

Yes, this would likely be a show-stopper for anyone who writes scripts

is so much

René,
I see that in this pipeline you use reverse with specs to trim trailing
parts of your

the CMS

I was working on a THE editor macro yesterday which for some reason got
stuck so that my
edit session became unresponsive and I had to kill THE. The original CMS Rexx
interpreter has "immediate commands" HX (Halt Execution) and HI (Halt

get around such situations.

I have to agree with this. Every time I upgrade my system I have to
reinstall a long list of products; I have mapped /usr/local to a separate
partition so that my additions don't disappear
It seems to me that I remember there being a difference in the
granularity of

have something to do with it?

In an operating system I worked with as a system administrator, an
out-of-memory condition caused a similar failure-without-notice, which the
vendor fixed by allocating a memory page at start-up reserved solely for
space for producing appropriate failure messages.

Power processors are still available and in use, (generally running
Linux,
but also AIX if I understand correctly), so it would be premature to assume
that ooRexx should ignore -endianness. See
