Line 4:
open sourced, maintained by the Rexx Language Association.
ooRexx can be used to run many programs shown here in the [[REXX]] category.
 
We are in the process of documenting the incompatibilies and shall publish them soon.
See http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Rosetta_Code:Village_Pump/Dialects#REXX.2C_ooRexx.2C_and_others
Notablefor differences are:.
* The use of some 'special' characters such as '''<tt>@</tt>''', '''<tt>#</tt>''' and '''<tt>$</tt>''' in symbols. (These symbols were [[wp:Deprecation|deprecated]] some time before 1990 when '''<tt>?</tt>''', '''<tt>!</tt>''' and '''<tt>_</tt>''' were introduced as acceptable alternatives.)
* Use of '''<tt>a=;</tt>''' instead of '''<tt>a=<nowiki>''</nowiki>;</tt>''' or '''<tt>a="";</tt>'''
The 24 game under REXX was meanwhile adapted so that it can be played with ooRexx.
