    Rexx has become very popular on the Amiga as a binding agent between
    applications, it is part of the operating system now.  In fact, it
    gives the Amiga inter-application operability that the NeXT can't touch
    (cut and paste just doesn't make it and API's are for programmer's,
    ARexx is for power users!)
