Thank you for the response. I think there might be a slight misunderstanding of the proposal. I am not suggesting to use the backslash (\) as an operator in Rexx code (which, as you pointed out, is the unary operator for negation). Instead, the proposed binary / is strictly a path composition operator in code syntax across all operating systems. The resulting File object handles the OS-specific path separators internally when constructing the path string. As far as I know, this is the way Python's...

Add "/" operator for path concatenation to the File class
