Line 3: <cite>REXX (REstructured eXtended eXecutor) is an interpreted programming language which was developed at IBM. It is a structured high-level programming language which was designed to be both easy to learn and easy to read. Both proprietary and open source interpreters for REXX are available on a wide range of computing platforms, and compilers are available for IBM mainframes.</cite> * '''[[wp:AREXX\|AREXX]]''' is an implementation for the AmigaOS, given in bundle since AmigaOS 2.* (Regina REXX has specific support for the extended functions that were introduced in AREXX.) * '''[[VM/CMS REXX]]''' is IBM's implementation of classic REXX, first implemented in the early 1980s, a license is required to use the operating system, '''VM''' and '''CMS''' are used here as generic references. * '''[[VM/CMS REXX compiler]]''' is an IBM implementation of classic REXX, a license is required to use this product as well as the operating system it runs under. * '''[[MVS/TSO REXX]]''' is IBM's implementation of classic REXX, a license is required to use the operating system, '''MVS''' and '''TSO''' are used here as generic references. * '''[[MVS/TSO REXX compiler]]''' is an IBM implementation of classic REXX, a license is required to use this product as well as the operating system it runs under. * '''[[Regina REXX]]''' is an implementation first created by Anders Christensen and now maintained by others, notably Mark Hessling. ~~This version of~~Regina REXX runs on more different platforms than any other REXX, too many to name here. * '''[[PC/REXX]]''' is the first classic REXX implented outside of IBM mainframes, intended for IBM DOS and MS DOS,. ~~written~~Written by Mansfield Software Group, Inc., REXX was bundled with KEDIT, a license is required to use this product. * '''[[Personal REXX]]''' is a classic REXX that is intended for IBM DOS and MS DOS, written by a Quercus Systems, a license is required to use this product. * '''[[OS/2 REXX]]''' is a classic REXX that is an IBM implementation of classic REXX, a license is required to use this product as well as the operating system it runs under. * '''[[OS/400 REXX]]''' is an IBM implementation of classic REXX, a license is required to use this product as well as the operating system it runs under. * '''[[KEXX]]''' is a subset of REXX that is bundled with KEDIT and written by Mansfield Software Group, Inc., a license is required to use this product. KEXX only executes under the KEDIT licensed product. * '''[[CTC REXX]]''' is a classic REXX that is bundled with PC/SPF and written by Command Technology Corporation, a license is required to use this product. REXX can only under PC/SPF and it's panels. * '''[[CRX REXX]]''' (Compact REXX) is a classic REXX first written by Dr. Brian Marks Line 21: * '''[[NetRexx\|NetRexx]]''' is IBM's variant of the REXX programming language to run on the Java virtual machine. It supports a classic REXX syntax, with no reserved keywords, along with considerable additions to support Object-oriented programming in a manner compatible with Java's object model, yet can be used as both a compiled and an interpreted language, with an option of using only data types native to the JVM or the NetRexx runtime package. The syntax and object model of NetRexx differ from Object REXX. <br>([Most of the entries were entered mostly from memory and apologies are offered for not knowing more about what wording should be used; the IBM's operating systems or Program Products that run REXX are ~~many~~numerous and ~~their~~varied. Their complete (official) names would fill a pagefull. Some of the REXXes are no longer sold nor available for downloading or purchase, others are no longer maintained. Naming of names is being avoided (especially those licensed products for sale), and it is hoped that this is seen that no products nor venders are being endorsed, appraised, or critiqued.] -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] 09:28, 1 July 2012 (UTC) <br>Other REXXes are: Line 33: * [http://www.rexxla.org The Rexx Language Association - www.rexxla.org] * [http://regina-rexx.sourceforge.net/index.html Regina Rexx Interpreter] * [http://www.kedit.com/ Mansfield Software Group, Inc.
