I came across the same problem last night after downloading VLT4p4.arc from
CompuServe. Readme says that RexxArpLib.library and RexxMathLib.library are
now distributed separately.  I run through the "AC's GUIDE/AMIGA" to find out 
that ARP stands for AmigaDOS Replacement Project, and that they are available
in FF227 (author W.G.J. Langeveld).  I also appreciate information on where in
the net I can get these libraries.

And I am curious about this project.  Could anybody describe its goal and recent
activities ?
