Open Source Rexx Software

Home of the Open Object Rexx Project. ooRexx is the open source version of IBM's Object REXX Interpreter. It is upwardly compatible with classic REXX and will execute classic REXX programs unchanged. The project is managed by the Rexx Language Association.

An implementation of the the ANSI Standard REXX Programming Language, available for most operating systems.

The Hessling Editor (THE) is a cross-platform text editor. Based on the IBM mainframe editor XEDIT, and includes many features of Kedit. All of THE is configurable, including syntax highlighting. THE uses Rexx as its macro language.

Here you'll find several Open Source Software ported/compiled for AmigaOS (and compatible systems). This project was created with the aim to give support to the ppl who don't have the time/compiler to do it for itself since most stuff compiles OOTB

NokiX is a tool used to modify firmwares of the Nokia DCT3 phone series. To do that it uses external scripts written in Rexx language. NokiX isn't actively developed by the author anymore, the project homepage is for archival purposes only.

Rexx/SQL is a Rexx external function package that allows access to various SQL databases with the same interface. Multiple databases from different vendors may be connected at once.

Rexx/CURL is a Rexx extension to enable Rexx programmers to control the cURL interface.

A powerful bi-directional ooRexx-Java bridge. BSF4ooRexx850 (bean scripting framework for ooRexx) supports ooRexx 5.0 or newer and Java 8 or newer, exploiting fully ooRexx (e.g. allowing Java methods to be implemented as ooRexx methods, supporting callbacks from Java to ooRexx), and Java. Camouflages Java as the dynamically typed, caseless and easy to use ooRexx: one can simply interact with any Java object and any Java class using ooRexx messages!

GCI is the Generic Call Interface for REXX interpreters. GCI allows REXX programmers access to all shared libraries (aka DLLs) where there are no REXX-specific wrappers.

This is a modified version of the CRC algorithms by Lammert Bies. It supports more algorithms and has been ported to several languages. It's also useful for learning how to do hexadecimal calculations and bitwise operations in various programming languages. Disclaimer: These test programs demonstrate the calculation of CRC. I made these translation with a basic knowledge of each language. They may or may not be appropriately formatted / secured / robustified / idiot proofed or any similar programming issues.

NetRexx is a dialect of the REXX programming language to run on the Java virtual machine. It supports a classic REXX syntax, with no reserved keywords, along with considerable additions to support object-oriented programming in a manner compatible with Java's object model, yet can be used as both a compiled and an interpreted language, with an option of using only data types native to the JVM or the NetRexx runtime package. Originally from IBM, NetRexx is the creation of Mike Cowlishaw, the 'Father of Rexx'. This IBM product has been open sourced in 2011.

AWSLIST - full-screen AWS tape browser. Browse tape files, directories and members of IEBCOPY or IEHMOVE unloaded data sets, enhanced browse of the printable data set having ASA control charaters. AWSLOAD - extracts data from AWS tape. Entire files can be extracted as well as IEBCOPY/IEHMOVE unloaded members. AWSDUMP - write data to AWS tape. Both standard labelled and unlabelled tapes supported, data set standard labels created as required. Existing tape may be appended. AWSINIT - initialize AWS tape. The same as z/OS IEHINITT does. AWSMAP - shortcut for AWSLIST -batch. Write AWS tape map and exits. UNCOPY - extracts members from IEBCOPY unloaded file UNMOVE - extracts members from IEHMOVE unloaded file UNISAM - extracts data from IEBISAM unloaded file XMITLIST - full-screen XMIT (TRANSMIT, IDTF) browser. A functional equivalent of well-known XMITMGR. UNXMIT - extracts data from XMIT file AWS2OMA - convert AWS tape to OMA/2 CD/DVD

A GUI debugger for ooRexx programs that can be run on Windows with ooRexx 4.2 or later and on other platforms with ooRexx 5.0 or later where Java with Swing/AWT has been installed along with bsf4oorexx. Please see the README.md file in the Code tab or latest release for much more detailed usage and setup information .

PLEASE NOTE: this package is meant to work with the Rexx SAA interface (e.g. with Regina) and non-modular Java (up to and including Java 8LTS). Project continued as a much more powerful and up-to-date version for ooRexx, available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/ PURPOSE: Bean Scripting Framework Rexx Engine (bsf4rexx) allows Java programs to call Rexx programs, and for Rexx programs to create and manipulate Java objects. The package will allow to script OpenOffice.org: "File" menu https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4rexx/files/ or if still available at http://wi.wu-wien.ac.at/rgf/rexx/bsf4rexx/current/

This RXVSAM is NOT found on the CBT. This interface allows z/OS REXX scripts to easily perform most operations on VSAM files. Support includes sequential/keyed access and updating to RRDS, ESDS, and KSDS files, via function call RXVSAM(). OS/390, z/OS

Rexx/gd is a Rexx interface to the gd graphics library. This interface allows a Rexx programmer to create and manipulate graphics images.

YAM (short for Yet Another Mailer) is a commonly used MIME-compliant Internet mailer written for AmigaOS computers. It supports POP3, SMTP, TLSv1/SSLv3, multiple users, PGP, hierarchical folders, filters, a configurable GUI, an ARexx interface and more...

Collection manager for tagged music files and Last.fm client for Amiga OS4

Aegeus brings the Open Object Rexx (ooRexx) API to Delphi Pascal programmers. A Delphi program (GUI or Console) can invoke any ooRexx service provided by the API and ooRexx Programs can invoke Delphi functions and subcommands.

The goal of this project is to create a BNF parser embedded in an Open Office file, which can transfer customizable BNF types into XML documents and diagrams. This will be achieved by using ooRexx, BSF4ooRexx and the OpenOffice java API

Simple BSmtp (Batch-Smtp) file processor with built-in MajorDomo, which can be used stand alone or as filter inside of an Smtp server (here e.g. in Weasel).

CACTUS Ain't Comic Translator's Utility Script.

FractalUniverse (short FU) is a powerful fractal generator for AMIGA-computers. It comes with 50 builtin formulas and over 100 custom formula scripts. It does on-the-fly dithering and can do animations via AREXX.

HD DRiVE-iNFO displays hdd data in simple output at Windows command line / shell (4NT and TCC), which is required for running. Some customization options and plain output for easy/fast reading of your system status. It also displays number of advanced info for those that need/require it.
