When adding other examples, please add them after any existing examples.   This is the custom at Rosetta Code, as the previous examples may refer to each other, and adding an example before those would invalidate any ordinal references.   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 02:22, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
 
== palindrome detection ==
You're using a non-ANSI function, '''compress'''.   You could just use the '''SPACE(xxx,0)''' BIF instead.
 
The '''upper''' function isn't available in most REXXes.   You could just use the '''translate''' BIF instead.
 
Failing that, you could add the &nbsp; <nowiki> {{works with}} </nowiki> &nbsp; template thingy for AREXX and/or Regina with the AREXX stuff.

I just noticed that the text of the Rosetta Code task &nbsp; ''palindrome detection'' &nbsp; had changed (apparently, some time ago), so I deleted my 2<sup>nd</sup> REXX version and re-did version 1 to comply with the new task's requirements. &nbsp; Even after the wording in the task prologue and task requirements changed, it still seems a bit fuzzy and slightly contradictory (see the talk section). &nbsp; But, it was the author's first attempt at a Rosetta Code task, so there's that. &nbsp; -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 02:45, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
