Perhaps the same John> mechanism that WShell uses could be employed (or maybe a Rexx John> protection bit --- UG- forget I said that!). They really should do this. No need for a separate bit. Use the same script bit, if the first two characters are "/*" then it's an ARexx script. Otherwise, assume it's an Execute script. [Actually, pulling "#!" from Unix scripts would be a good idea.] Deven -- Deven T.
