subject: Classic REXX files?

Some senseless babbling from Steve Mccrystal to Jack Stein
on 09-03-99  19:33 about Classic REXX files?...

[snip]
 SM> And, on a related note, this code (kindly supplied by Mike Ruskai a
 SM> week or so ago) will work in OREXX but not in CREXX, even tho the
 SM> routine in question is part of REXXUTIL:

 SM> === Cut ===
 SM> /* strip EA's from files */
 SM> call SysFileTree '*.*','files.','FO'
 SM> call SysFileDelete 'eajunk'
 SM> do i=1 to files.0
 SM> '@eautil "'||files.i||'" eajunk /s'
 SM> call SysFileDelete 'eajunk'
 SM> end
 SM> === Cut ===

 SM> This fails with an error message (function not defined, I think) in
 SM> line 2. 

Are the REXXUTIL functions loaded?  There's nothing in the above that won't 
work on SAA REXX, unless something is askew.
