     Didn't mean to imply that I thought rexx was useless outside of a 
multitasking environment; just that as an interpreted language I don't think
it really substitutes for something like Pascal or C.  I USE it as a sub for
those languages, but mainly because my poor beleagured Amy (1 meg, three
floppies) can't really handle anything meaty like Lattice C.  (Neither can my
brain, at this point...)
