>rxd does not seem to work too well on makempl.EXE!

This is expected. I had hoped that you would realize that you needed to
run the REXX program makempl.rxx, especially when I told you which line
numbers to check.

Makeempl.exe and most of the leech apps are just REXX programs converted
to executables by rexx2exe.

>Looks like this causes makempl to ignore them when it is creating

>of makempl.rxx.

I suspected this was the problem. If you want to fix the problem
entirely, change line 32 to be

call sysfiletree "*.*", lst., "dso"

This is equivalent to

call sysfiletree "*.*", lst., "so", "*+**"

This assumes you don't want to exclude system and hidden directories.

There's no difference other than that you need to supply the extension so
that the shell can find the script. You can also tell 4os2 that .rxx
programs are executable by 4os2.exe with

set .rxx=4os2.exe

>How does makempl.rxx get converted into makempl.exe?

As I mentioned above, it gets converted by rexx2exe. I use Veit's version
which is on hobbes.

>OK, I copied makempl.rxx to makempl.cmd and it seems to work.

You could have just typed

makempl.rxx

Have fun,

Steven
