Blind faith!

The Rexx Interpreter is here (for purchase):
http://commerce.www.ibm.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce/CategoryDisplay?cntrfnbr=1&cgmenbr=1&cntry=840&lang=en_US&scrfnbr=73&cgrfnbr=2081161&x=5&y=8
(be careful if that URL wraps in your mailer -- paste the pieces together!)

There's a free trial version (I don't know the limitations, but it would give
you a glimpse at the engine and the reference manuals probably) at:
http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/download/preconfig.jsp?id=2002-01-28+13%3A16%3A24.834879R&cat=ad&s=c&S_TACT=&S_CMP=

IBM's basic Rexx information page is:

You can get the free runtime that I'm distributing with XyShell at:
http://users.rcn.com/will13/XYWBRXRT.ZIP
The runtime won't allow you to write or modify scripts, though -- only execute
compiled scripts (which I will supply), so unless you have XyShell installed, it
won't do you much good. And I'm still taking a last look at XyShell for Win32
before letting a first version loose, sooo... it won't do you any good at all!
