DL> The comparison opertor for "equals" in REXX is = , not ==.

Hmm, never knew that!. Perhaps I have a few of these "bugs" in
some of my REXX
code that I never caught before becuase they work. I know it is hard to switch
back and forth between REXX & C.  Besides the C style comments make it even
harder to subconciously make the distinction. I still catch myself putting
parens around logical expressions when I am building if-then-else structures.
