I understand, and that makes sense. Just did a check to make sure and the
RENAME command doesn't issue a return code. That appears to be a
characteristic of the built-in commands, which I consider a failing. But, I
learned my REXX at VM/CMS school, and one just expects the return codes to be
there. Oh, well...
