I would think this should be simple, but maybe I'm missing something.
I want to be able to say

1> cd sys:xyz/pdq
1> rx hello
SYS:xyz/pdq
1>

Where hello.rexx contains something along the lines of:
/* hello.rexx */
address command
'cd'

However, it seems as though SYS: is the current dir for all the
commands I start from ARexx.  What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.     -- Darren
