Appendix H. Tools, Interfaces, and Packages
As a universal scripting language that enjoys worldwide use, Rexx has inevitably spawned a large collection of open-source and free tools. There are literally too many Rexx tools, utilities, extensions, and interfaces to track them all. This partial list shows some of the available tools and hints at their breadth. All those listed here are either open-source or free software. You can locate most of these tools simply by entering their names as search keywords in any prominent search engine, such as Google, Yahoo!, or AltaVista. Many of them can also be located through links found at the home pages of the Rexx Language Association, SourceForge, and those of the various Rexx interpreters. The Rexx Language Association is located at www.rexxla.org, SourceForge is located at www.sourceforge.net, and the Web addresses for the Rexx interpreters are found in Chapters 20 through 30 in the section of each chapter entitled "Downloading and Installing."
