CygCC Tutorial problems - AREXX and CED

I've been working with the 'CygCC' AREXX tutorial in the latest Amazing
Computer, and although the tutorial is excellent, I'm having trouble 
getting it to run. This program is a driver to glue CED and that Lattice
compiler. It contains 4 AREXX scripts which occasionally call each other.
I've stored the 4 in the REXX: directory with the proper '.rexx' suffix
but CED doesn't seem to be able to find them. The main driver 'CygCC' will
run from the CED 'send DOS/AREXX command' but only if I give it a fully
qualified pathname like 'REXX:CygCC.rexx'. It then ends when trying to 
call another one of the scripts ('FindWind') with an AREXX return code of
10. CED is running under WShell, and things look okay if I try them from
the shell instead. They don't go very far when called from the shell, but
then they where designed to not go very far if not called from CED. I can
call the programs with just the name under the shell and it is found as 
normal in the REXX: directory. Yes, the REXX: directory is assigned and I've
run 'rexxmast'. I'm using current version of AREXX and CED, plus Lattice 
v5.05.

To me it seems to be a problem with CED (not CED's problem, probably mine)
and how it searches for functions, etc.

Thanks for any help.

---Mike,
