Line 239:
<br>8. Rexx programs using features added by ooRexx are entered in the ooRexx section possibly stating the minimum version to be used.
:::: I go further than that. ooRexx entries are to be entered in the ooRexx section, no matter what features are used (or not used). &
<br>9. Two implementations of a language are compatible if each possible program yields the same result when run on both.
Line 294:
:::::::: You '''were''' constructive on several occasions (the proleptic calendar and your justified flagging my x+=8 lapse come to mind.)<br>The sad thing is the tons of vague arguments that you are using in this "discussion" that goes really out of bounds.<br>similarly sad is the number of voters we attract.<br>I shall stop arguing now and post programs that are written in that subset of Rexx that is accepted by each and every Rexx I know in the REXX language section. I will never flag your entries when they use $#@, Upper x, or x"; since I was unable to convince you that we were better off without them (the language features, not your programs.).
PS I don't know what a left-handed compliment is! --[[User:Walterpachl|Walterpachl]] ([[User talk:Walterpachl|talk]]) 18:29, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
::::::::: (GIYF) A backhanded compliment, also known as a left handed compliment or asteism, is an insult that is disguised as a compliment. One common form is: You know, for being such a fat person, you don't sweat much!! (What every woman wants to hear, I'm sure.) In some other words: there were times when you were constructive, but not so much the other times. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 19:09, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
:::::::::: When I entered asteism in Google, it said "did you mean asterism". That led to my false comment entered earlier. Sorry. Looking it up in my huge Langenscheidt helped me. Still learning something new every other day from and because of you.<br>My English will never be perfect, but I'm trying to improve. My REXX is quite good though, in spite of so many specs to look into :-)--[[User:Walterpachl|Walterpachl]] ([[User talk:Walterpachl|talk]]) 06:41, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

But, I disagree about ''why'' Mark (Hessling) did. I hoped he didn't add a special flag just to keep me happy. It was a response to a Regina "bug" (that I reported), or rather, a feature/option of Regina that isn't part of any Classic REXX standard (this is the use of the '''--''' as a REXX comment indicator); I had expressed a possible need for such a switch so that Regina could be run as ANSI compliant REXX. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 18:55, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
== This page is now displaying properly again! ==
I traced this problem back to when the Tcl entry was added on 26 March 2014, probably because of the size of the output (virtually the whole unicode character table).
With apologies to the author of this entry (Dkf), I've restricted the output to the first 256 characters and, thankfully, the problem now seems to be fixed. --[[User:PureFox|PureFox]] ([[User talk:PureFox|talk]]) 16:22, 18 September 2017 (UTC)
