I really like the OS2REXX echo, but I haven't had time to keep up reading
since last Spring.  You mentioned "a suite of REXX scripts" which implies
several.  What I would like to do is start another file area on my BBS with
ALL of your REXX scripts, that you will allow to be public.  So would you
please send me what you can, a save me some time searching?

     Thanks and Good Luck,        Andy Roberts
