Subject: MS DOS 5.0
We are aware of only one problem that early users of MS DOS 5.0 have run
into with Personal REXX 2.0: The version of the REXX Batch Manager
(RXBATMGR) shipped with Personal REXX 2.0 does not work with MS DOS 5.0.
We are therefore supplying replacement files for use with DOS 5.0:
- RXBATMGR.COM is the updated version of the REXX Batch Manager.
- RXBATUTL.COM is an updated version of the utility that initializes the
REXX Batch Manager.
- RXBATIN.BAT is used by RXBATUTL during the initialization process.
To update RXBATMGR under DOS 5.0, place all 3 files into the same
directory, make that directory the current directory, and run RXBATUTL.
RXBATMGR should then work as it did under previous versions of DOS.
(The REXX Batch Manager is discussed on pages 27-29 of the Personal REXX
2.0 User's Guide.)
Aside from the need for an updated version of RXBATMGR, early users of
MS DOS 5.0 have not reported any difficulties using Personal REXX 2.0.
If you run into any problems, please let us know.
Personal REXX 3.0, which will be marketed by Quercus Systems (who can be
reached at 408-867-REXX), is expected to be released this summer.
Quercus Systems plans to incorporate the RXBATMGR changes discussed here
into Personal REXX 3.0.
