Steven, Peter and I,

I now use Object REXX almost exclusively on my machine. However, I also
wrote a PMREXX program to allow me to quickly switch between the 2
whenever I want.

One thing about Object REXX. It first interprets all of your commands
and instructions before it runs. If it finds a mistake, it will not run,
but will signal you that you have a problem. This is different than
Classical REXX, which runs until it encounters a mistake then stops.
