compiler. This should work on all platforms that can run the Java
toolkit and compiler.

The NetRexx documentation and software are distributed free of charge
under the conditions of the IBM Employee-Written Software program.

To view the online documentation you need a text editor or a Web

To run the software, you will need the Java runtime and toolkit (from

files with "long names" and case-sensitive names. Detailed instructions
are available in the installation
instructions; please read these before installing.
You can also extract the installation instructions as the file
nrinst.doc from the package you downloaded.
- Once unpacked into a directory, you can view all the NetRexx
documentation locally by pointing your Web browser at the 'root'
documentation file netrexx.htm, or browse the files that have
.doc as their file extension/type.
- To use the NetRexx compiler or the NetRexx class files, you'll need
to unpack one of the Zip or Gzip files included within the
