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

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.

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

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.

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/

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!

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.

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...

RxSock is an external function package for Rexx programmers to enable them to connect to, and act as, TCP/IP socket servers.

Rexx/Curses is an interface to the curses library. With this external function package, Rexx programmers can write cross-platform applications with a consistent textual user interface.

Rexx/DW is an external function package for Rexx programmers providing a cross platform GUI toolset. The underlying GUI package is Dynamic Windows.

Rexx/Trans provides an abstract level between a Rexx-enabled application and a Rexx interpreter. This allows an application to be written using the SAA Rexx API and linked with Rexx/Trans. At runtime, Rexx/Trans finds an appropriate Rexx interpreter fo

An lightweight open source implementation of the Rexx programming language.

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 .

An XML parser written in the REXX programming language. It runs on mainframes (z/OS Rexx) as well as Windows and Linux (Regina or ooRexx). Includes example Rexx programs that use the parser such as: JCL2XML (converts z/OS JCL into an XML format), AUX2SVG (converts a z/OS CICS auxiliary trace file into a visual SVG format), PRETTY (an XML pretty printer), DEVISIO (an example of removing unwanted tags from an SVG file).

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.

CACTUS Ain't Comic Translator's Utility Script.

Mod_Rexx is an Apache loadable module which interfaces to Rexx. All phases of an Apache request can be processed with Mod_Rexx. It supports Open Object Rexx and Regina Rexx.

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.

Rexx/CSV is a Rexx external function package that makes reading and writing to CSV (comma separated values) files easier.

Rexx/Tk is a Rexx external function package providing an interface to the Tk library. This allows Rexx programmers write portable, cross-platform GUI applications.
