Re: REXX; the POWER scripting language on steroids

You are more than welcome to put them on my web site, in fact I'd be 
honored if they were there.  But David has a place here for them, too.

Here's my favorite Rexx, btw:

In my QAUOOPT file:

Option  Command   
  X    /* Run REXX. */ STRREXPRC SRCMBR(&N) SRCFILE(&L/&F) 

And then at the head of my libraries where I need special library lists 
to do stuff:
a REXX type member:
Member      Type        Text             
#LIBL       REXX        Set library list 

with content like this:
'RMVLIBLE LIB(QTEMP)'                             
'ADDLIBLE LIB(QTEMP) POSITION(*BEFORE QGPL)'      
'ADDLIBLE LIB(xxxx) POSITION(*BEFORE QGPL)'        
'ADDLIBLE LIB(xxxx) POSITION(*BEFORE QGPL)'        

Then, anytime one  opens the source file, one can "X" the #LIBL member, 
and bob's your uncle, there's your reset library list.
