If you are not currently a member of RexxLa, you should probably consider joining.
Membership is still only $25.00 per year; the yearly symposiums are always well-planned,
reasonably priced, interesting and fun and the association members are a great bunch of
people with a lot of Rexx experience under their belts.
"Few things are harder to put up with than the annoyance of a good example."

Object REXX
Object REXX takes the power of
traditional REXX programming and adds a whole new dimension.
REXX has been used by programmers for years on many different platforms. Now IBM has added
Object Technology to its strengths. Through Object REXX's ease of use, power and portability,
object-oriented programming can be much easier than you once thought.
