These should all be picked up from rexxglue.o (they are in mine). There is a
later version of ARexx than 1.0, and it is well worth having. If these symbols
are not defined in your rexxglue.asm, the new version of ARexx should fix
things up.

While I'm at it, here's a glue routine that I wrote for StcToken. It was not
supplied with my rexxglue.asm, and I needed it.

Usage from C:
-------------

struct Token = {
        char *Current
        char *NextToken
        int  Length
        char Quote
        }

     structure = StcToken( stringptr, bufferptr )

Glue routine itself
-------------------
           XDEF    _StcToken
_StcToken
           move.l  4(sp),a0           ;get stringptr
           move.l  a6,-(sp)           ;save current lib pointer
           movea.l _RexxSysBase,a6    ;point to rexxlib
           jsr     _LVOStcToken(a6)   ;do it
           move.l  12(sp),a6          ;get buffer pointer

           move.l  a1,(a6)            ;fill in structure
           move.l  a0,4(a6)
           move.l  d1,8(a6)
           move.b  d0,12(a6)
           move.l  (sp)+,a6           ;restore lib pointer
           move.l  d1,d0              ;return length of token
           rts


-------------------

Add this to your rexxglue.asm if you need to call StcToken from C
