REXXLIB by Quercus System

• The REXXLib functions (which includes an additional function library called RXWINDOW) were originally published as a part of Personal REXX, Version 3
• REXXLib is the stand-alone version of the Personal REXX function library (the Personal REXX version requires the use of Personal REXX)
• Because it was released before REXXUtil, some of the REXXLib functions duplicate those in REXXUtil
• REXXLib consists of about 150 functions that support array manipulation operations; a very complete set of system operations; screen read and write operations; system hardware and software information operations; macrospace operations; named pipe operations; event semaphore operations; and mathematical, including trigonometric operation
• REXXLIB supports these services:

  • Array Manipulation
    • REXX "arrays" consist of data in stem variables, also called compound variables
    • REXXLib provides functions to add to, delete from, sort and otherwise manage the data in arrays

  • System Operations
    REXXLib provides 47 functions to manage the file system and various aspects of process execution

  • System Hardware Information
    These functions return information about various aspects of the system hardware
