Hope you don't mind the update, Barbara. ;-) uni-REXX and uni-XEDIT are both products of DYNASOFT. I once knew the relationship between DYNASOFT and The Workstation Group, but must 'fess memory loss (in this respect). I think DYNASOFT is the parent company, but don't know for sure (hey, I don't get a cent for this!) :-( ;-) uni-REXX does NOT come with uni-XEDIT, but can of course be ordered too. Advisable, of course (though there are a couple of freeware/PD/copy- lefted REXX interpreters for Unix available). For more on this you'd want to post to <UREXX-L@Liverpool.ac.uk>; that list includes XEDIT implemen- tations in its "charter". uni-XEDIT is quite complete, and implements CMS-XEDIT very nicely on Unix. Any CMS person who wants to get used to Unix with a few well-known tools at their fingertips is well-advised to push for uni-XEDIT and uni-REXX. (And uni-SPF...) There is a cheaper (not much) XEDIT for unix available from the U. of Waterloo. Last I heard (a year ago), it worked only on Suns and AIX. uni-XEDIT (all of The Workstation Group's prods from CMS) have been ported to many different (non-)unix platforms. You might also want to email to Ed Spire <ets@wrkgrp.com>. Regards. $$/
