I would certainly hope that some of this special code would go into the
Shell as well as into Execute() ... I would certainly like to have the
basic environment do as WShell does now, meaning "if the command name
is not in the search path, is it in the REXX: directory with an appended
.rexx at the end... in that case I have to "rx" it.

It's in there?????  Or, as Mike says, does everyone still have to buy
WShell to get this capability.  Good for Bill Hawes, but seems to defeat
the purpose of building in AREXX if the Amiga Shell (and Execute) cannot
be made to recognize AREXX scripts and execute-scripts interchangeably.
