You can use the scrollbar to view any previous output that has not been cleared. PMREXX also provides a single line input field so that you can supply input to the REXX procedure or to any commands called by the REXX procedure. For more information about using REXX procedures, see REXX Information. ═══ 2. Help for File ═══ Use the choices on the File pull-down to open and save files and to exit PMREXX. ═══ 3.
