Foreword for Version 3.10

And here it is: The next version of RXT&T.

---------- * ----------

This version is again only a maintenance update - the only real new REXX code is in the section Call by value.

A new feature in this version is:

You can now call your web browser and your email program from within REXX Tips & Tricks. For more information about this new feature see Installing REXX Tips & Tricks and Icons Used in REXX Tips & Tricks.

In this version I restructured the section Additional Software for REXX. I think it is now more useful than before. I also added a lot of new software that I found on various sources to this section. If you know other software useful for REXX programmer - please let me know and I will add them to RXT&T. That's also true for other information useful for REXX programmer, of course.

While implementing the new features I realized that there are a lot of old Compuserve email addresses in the email section. I'm pretty sure that most of them are not valid anymore. So, if you know the new email addresses of one or more people mentioned there - please let me know so that I can correct them.

---------- * ----------

Something I also want to know is if the sections about BBSes are useful for anyone anymore. These sections are IBM BBS, Canada, Germany, USA, Other BBS, Germany, and USA,

I personally use only the internet nowadays. And I did not update these sections for a long time - I even don't know if the BBS mentioned there still exist.

So, if you find these sections still useful please let me know. Otherwise I'll remove them in the next version of RXT&T.

Please note that my email address is now Bernd.Schemmer@gmx.de If that address doesn't work you may use Bernd.Schemmer@epost.de .

And last:

Beginning in January 2001 I'll work as a freelancer. So, if you need support for OS/2 (Server or Clients), REXX programming, or any flavour of Unix you're welcome to contact me.
