No, it's better than AREXX because it doesn't force a bogus PL/I lookalike
language on you. It's more like a super-streams.

I do hope that, since AREXX seems to becoming the standard, Comm-Ex will
get an AREXX interface before too long. I still don't see that AREXX is
*the answer* to IPC, but it's useful enough as a control language.
