User Reviews

  • A Stellar Tool for Modern Scripting - ooRexx Shines Bright!
  • Rexx in all its forms has been a fantastic language to learn and use.
  • I started using REXX on VM/SP Release in which it was first included, I believe Rel 3. I immediately loved it and used it for all kinds of projects. When I retired I discovered ooRexx and began running it in Windows. I was able to run some VM/REXX scripts almost unchanged in Windows. At first I thought I would never grasp Object Oriented programming but this 80 year old dog is actually using it a little, I really like being able to use ooRexx to interface with MS Office, especially Excel.
  • Excellent! OoRexx is reliable, versatile and also very accessible for beginners.
  • OOrexx on UBUNTU 20.04 The latest OOrexx 4.2.0 package for Ubuntu (ooRexx-4.2.0-1.ubuntu1310.x86_64.deb) fails to install on Ubuntu 20.04. There is a 5.0.0 beta (ooRexx-5.0.0-12066.ubuntu1604.x86_64.deb) on Sourceforge that is now running happily. So far no problems found. Loek Sluijter
