Description from the author:

"FILEREXX.DLL is a REXX Function Library. It adds "commands" to the REXX language, which a REXX script (i.e., program) can call. These commands offer alternatives to the REXX file reading/writing routines which make it possible to access the same files from multiple running scripts (i.e., allow file sharing). FileRexx also makes it much easier to read/write files containing binary values. There are also routines which vastly simplify device (i.e., driver) I/O, and make some driver control possible which standard REXX doesn't allow. Finally, FileRexx offers a lot more parsing options when reading a line, thus eliminating the need to parse a line into separate pieces, or using TRANSLATE to change the case."

FILEREXX provides the following functions:


[Back: File & Disk I/O]
[Next: Read/Write disk sectors]
