I'm a novice myself (as in 'haven't tried it yet), but I read somewhere
that a .CMD-file isn't interpreted as a REXX-program if it doesn't start
with a /*-comment or something like that. Until then it is 'just' an
ordinary OS/2-batch-file. All you guru's out there: If I'm wrong, please
feel free to correct me.  :-)
