Open Source Rexx Software

Home of the Open Object Rexx Project. ooRexx is the open source version of IBM's Object REXX Interpreter. It is upwardly compatible with classic REXX and will execute classic REXX programs unchanged. The project is managed by the Rexx Language Association.

An implementation of the the ANSI Standard REXX Programming Language, available for most operating systems.

Here you'll find several Open Source Software ported/compiled for AmigaOS (and compatible systems). This project was created with the aim to give support to the ppl who don't have the time/compiler to do it for itself since most stuff compiles OOTB

A powerful bi-directional ooRexx-Java bridge. BSF4ooRexx850 (bean scripting framework for ooRexx) supports ooRexx 5.0 or newer and Java 8 or newer, exploiting fully ooRexx (e.g. allowing Java methods to be implemented as ooRexx methods, supporting callbacks from Java to ooRexx), and Java. Camouflages Java as the dynamically typed, caseless and easy to use ooRexx: one can simply interact with any Java object and any Java class using ooRexx messages!

The Hessling Editor (THE) is a cross-platform text editor. Based on the IBM mainframe editor XEDIT, and includes many features of Kedit. All of THE is configurable, including syntax highlighting. THE uses Rexx as its macro language.

Rexx/CURL is a Rexx extension to enable Rexx programmers to control the cURL interface.

NokiX is a tool used to modify firmwares of the Nokia DCT3 phone series. To do that it uses external scripts written in Rexx language. NokiX isn't actively developed by the author anymore, the project homepage is for archival purposes only.

Rexx/DW is an external function package for Rexx programmers providing a cross platform GUI toolset. The underlying GUI package is Dynamic Windows.

Rexx/Tk is a Rexx external function package providing an interface to the Tk library. This allows Rexx programmers write portable, cross-platform GUI applications.

A GUI debugger for ooRexx programs that can be run on Windows with ooRexx 4.2 or later and on other platforms with ooRexx 5.0 or later where Java with Swing/AWT has been installed along with bsf4oorexx. Please see the README.md file in the Code tab or latest release for much more detailed usage and setup information .

Rexx/SQL is a Rexx external function package that allows access to various SQL databases with the same interface. Multiple databases from different vendors may be connected at once.

PLEASE NOTE: this package is meant to work with the Rexx SAA interface (e.g. with Regina) and non-modular Java (up to and including Java 8LTS). Project continued as a much more powerful and up-to-date version for ooRexx, available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/ PURPOSE: Bean Scripting Framework Rexx Engine (bsf4rexx) allows Java programs to call Rexx programs, and for Rexx programs to create and manipulate Java objects. The package will allow to script OpenOffice.org: "File" menu https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4rexx/files/ or if still available at http://wi.wu-wien.ac.at/rgf/rexx/bsf4rexx/current/

NetRexx is a dialect of the REXX programming language to run on the Java virtual machine. It supports a classic REXX syntax, with no reserved keywords, along with considerable additions to support object-oriented programming in a manner compatible with Java's object model, yet can be used as both a compiled and an interpreted language, with an option of using only data types native to the JVM or the NetRexx runtime package. Originally from IBM, NetRexx is the creation of Mike Cowlishaw, the 'Father of Rexx'. This IBM product has been open sourced in 2011.

AWSLIST - full-screen AWS tape browser. Browse tape files, directories and members of IEBCOPY or IEHMOVE unloaded data sets, enhanced browse of the printable data set having ASA control charaters. AWSLOAD - extracts data from AWS tape. Entire files can be extracted as well as IEBCOPY/IEHMOVE unloaded members. AWSDUMP - write data to AWS tape. Both standard labelled and unlabelled tapes supported, data set standard labels created as required. Existing tape may be appended. AWSINIT - initialize AWS tape. The same as z/OS IEHINITT does. AWSMAP - shortcut for AWSLIST -batch. Write AWS tape map and exits. UNCOPY - extracts members from IEBCOPY unloaded file UNMOVE - extracts members from IEHMOVE unloaded file UNISAM - extracts data from IEBISAM unloaded file XMITLIST - full-screen XMIT (TRANSMIT, IDTF) browser. A functional equivalent of well-known XMITMGR. UNXMIT - extracts data from XMIT file AWS2OMA - convert AWS tape to OMA/2 CD/DVD

HD DRiVE-iNFO displays hdd data in simple output at Windows command line / shell (4NT and TCC), which is required for running. Some customization options and plain output for easy/fast reading of your system status. It also displays number of advanced info for those that need/require it. Main features: Displays local hdd's, networked drives, cd/dvd/bluray's, usb connected devices. Also displays additional info from all these different storage devices (dvd layers, network write access, usb device detection, etc)

Pegasus Ircd + IRC Services, New Secure server offering new, fun modes and commands, samove, myhost and mynick, + addon Z type Services. Based on Bahamut, Unreal and Quarterdecks global stage Ircd.

Rexx/Curses is an interface to the curses library. With this external function package, Rexx programmers can write cross-platform applications with a consistent textual user interface.

Rexx/Trans provides an abstract level between a Rexx-enabled application and a Rexx interpreter. This allows an application to be written using the SAA Rexx API and linked with Rexx/Trans. At runtime, Rexx/Trans finds an appropriate Rexx interpreter fo

Collection manager for tagged music files and Last.fm client for Amiga OS4

Aegeus brings the Open Object Rexx (ooRexx) API to Delphi Pascal programmers. A Delphi program (GUI or Console) can invoke any ooRexx service provided by the API and ooRexx Programs can invoke Delphi functions and subcommands.

The goal of this project is to create a BNF parser embedded in an Open Office file, which can transfer customizable BNF types into XML documents and diagrams. This will be achieved by using ooRexx, BSF4ooRexx and the OpenOffice java API

Simple BSmtp (Batch-Smtp) file processor with built-in MajorDomo, which can be used stand alone or as filter inside of an Smtp server (here e.g. in Weasel).

CACTUS Ain't Comic Translator's Utility Script.

This is a modified version of the CRC algorithms by Lammert Bies. It supports more algorithms and has been ported to several languages. It's also useful for learning how to do hexadecimal calculations and bitwise operations in various programming languages. Disclaimer: These test programs demonstrate the calculation of CRC. I made these translation with a basic knowledge of each language. They may or may not be appropriately formatted / secured / robustified / idiot proofed or any similar programming issues.

FractalUniverse (short FU) is a powerful fractal generator for AMIGA-computers. It comes with 50 builtin formulas and over 100 custom formula scripts. It does on-the-fly dithering and can do animations via AREXX.
