[Netrexx-develop] address with

[Marc R. <re...@gm...>]

I just pushed a first draft of 'ooRexx-like' ADDRESS WITH implementation to the address-with branch.
Currently it only supports stems, aka indexed strings.
Input and output stems must be of Rexx type, where
stem['0'] specifies the number of lines, and each stem['i'] specifies a line (with i from 1 through stem['0']).

DiagAddress.nrx has some sample code, such as
<<

istem=''
ostem=''
estem=''

istem['0']=1
istem['1']='Hello world'

address bash 'cat' with input stem istem

istem['1']='echo Hello world'
ostem['0']=0

address bash 'bash' with input stem istem output APPEND stem ostem error stem estem
loop i=1 to ostem[0]
   say 'STDOUT: 'ostem[i]
end
loop i=1 to estem[0]
   say 'STDERR: 'estem[i]
end

 >>

IMHO, all ooRexx features are supported for stems, including 'permanent' redirection.
