TITLE :Running REXX Scripts on Windows NT
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
REXX (REstructured eXtended eXecutor) scripts can run with Windows NT
without modification. However, you must make some changes to your
Windows NT system and have OS/2 version 1.3 files available to run
these scripts.
The following procedure enables Windows NT to support REXX scripts:
1. From OS/2 version 1.3, copy CMD.EXE to a hard disk drive on your
Windows NT machine.
2. Also from OS/2 version 1.3, copy the REXX dynamic-link library
(DLL) files to your Windows NT machine. Make sure these files reside
in a directory in your OS/2 library path.
Note: REXX DLL files should have the form "REXX*.DLL" and be located
in the \OS2\DLL subdirectory of your OS/2 installation.
3. Execute CMD.EXE from Windows NT.
You should be able to run REXX scripts now. Note the following:
- REXX scripts should have two-letter prefixes of "/*" and
three-letter extensions of "CMD."
- The first REXX script you run may not work. After you run it again,
all subsequent REXX scripts should run properly, including the first
script you ran.
- Make sure all the OS/2 files you copied are version 1.3.
