Line 35:
::::::::: I show execution results for some Classic REXX interpreters that are convenient for me to execute (I have other Classic REXX interpreters, but they are a lot of trouble to set up and execute without stepping on my other installed classic REXX interpreters, so I rarely bother with them). I've entered one Classic REXX program and used (various) Classic REXX interpreters and shown their output. I've said it before, ooRexx executions belong in the ooRexx language section. The fact that ooRexx ''may'' execute a Classic REXX program doesn't make ooRexx a Classic REXX interpreter (I know this definition is arguable and is a bone of contention --- but if ooRexx executions would be placed in the ooRexx language section, this would be a moot point). PL/I ''may'' execute a Classic REXX program, that doesn't make PL/I a REXX interpreter; nor would anyone expect there be a PL/I entry entered/executed the REXX section to demonstrate that point. I see no reason to remove the Classic REXX version 1 program entry, there is no redundancy except for the misplaced posting/execution of an ooRexx entry in the Classic REXX language section. Version 2 (if executed with ooRexx) belongs in the ooRexx language section. As an aside, if ooRexx executes classic REXX programs, have it execute version 1. Yeah, I know, it's a tongue in cheek request. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 20:57, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
::::::::: Perhaps the phrase ''tongue in check'' isn't that well known or understood on the other side of the pond. I didn't mean for the error(s) to be posted, it was to show that a Classic REXX program being executed by ooREXX may (or may not) be execute correctly; hence, there is an ooRexx language section for executing the ooRexx interpreter. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 22:02, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
