- Don't forget Rexx... ;)

- Although it seems to have fallen asleep on Amiga in a way. If
- you see, how development flies for OS/2, since IBM realized the
- value of hunter Hawes' treasure from their own drawers.
-
- Maybe they really had a very close look on the pioneering
- multitasking OS :)
-
- I hope, ARexx won't be forgotten by AT when they move on to new
- versions of Amiga OS. Another field where we are two steps
- behind (at least). Perhaps someone with more knowledge (Olaf?)
- could comment if ARexx should follow Rexx more or less closely,
- i.e. strive for compatibility?
