Line 5:
For Regina REXX, it depends on the release level.
 
For Regina REXX 3.3,   3.4,   3.5, REXX gives a SYNTAX error:
:::::: Error 12 running "C:\xxxxxx.REX", line 29: [Clause > 1024 characters]
 
For Regina REXX 3.6,   3.7, REXX "crashes" somewhere less than a statement length of 1932,
<br>I haven't pursued this to find the exact byte count.
 
Line 18:
 
For what's it worth, I believe REXX should raise the SYNTAX condition.
 
[The reason I mention the older versions of Regina REXX is that Regina REXX 3.3 uses less
<br>virtual memory for those REXX programs which use a ''lot'' of stemmed variables (possibly a
<br>memory leak), so the use of the older Regina release is forced in lieu of a fix.
 
For PC/REXX and Personal REXX, it depends on what the RXISA ('''SET''' environmental variable).
<br>These two REXXes either give:
:::::: Error 11 on line 29 of c:\xxxxxx.REX" Control stack full
<br>
::::::
:::::: Memory full: symbol
:::::: Error 5 on line 29 of C:\xxxxxx.REX: Machine resources exhausted
