OS/2 For You - Feb. 1993 - Volume 2, Number 2

February Meeting Topic

VX-REXX

REXX is a flexible and easy to use high-level end-user language that actually comes with OS/2. WATCOM VX-REXX goes beyond standard REXX, providing a visual design environment and a number of advanced features for creating GUI applications for OS/2 Presentation Manager.

Rob Veitch, the VX-REXX Chief Architect and Technical Manager at WATCOM, will explain the advantages of VX-REXX for exploiting OS/2. In the process, he will demonstrate REXX and VX-REXX operation, programming, and debugging.

While this meeting will have a technical slant, it is definitely not just for programmers! OS/2 provides a very graphical environment, and we'll get a useful glimpse at some of the issues involved in application design. As usual, the meeting will conclude with a general question and answer period.
