- $VER: CloneSRCE.dopus5 1.0 Jun-01-95
- Written by: Gary Gagnon (garyg@wimsey.com)
- Purpose: ARexx script to clone SRCE lister(s)
- Syntax: From function editor "ARexx DOpus5:ARexx/Same.dopus5 {Qp}"
- Note: I keep my DOpus5 ARexx scripts in DOpus5:ARexx
- Note: If no listers flagged as SRCE, nothing is opened

- if you couldn't figure it out, it extracts the first value from
- the string and moves the remaining values (if any) back to the
- same string. This is what allows this to duplicate all SRCE
- listers within this simple loop (and also makes sure it won't be
- an endless loop). Languages without type checks can be nice!
