Hi all,

Is it possible to send the (stdout) output of an OS/2 command or regular
character-oriented program directly back to the Rexx script that issued the
command?

At this moment I redirect the output to a file, read the file with 'linein'
and then delete it. It works, but it is a bit clumsy. I would expect
sending it to the input-queue of the Rexx-script is more appropriate. But I
have not found a way how to do this. Suggestions are welcome!

Cheers, Rob
