From the NetRexx 2 documentation:
Implied semicolons and continuations
A semicolon (clause end) is implied at the end of each line, except
if:
1.The line ends in the middle of a block comment, in which case the
clause continues at the end of the block comment.
2.The last token was a hyphen. In this case the hyphen is
functionally replaced by a blank, and hence acts as a continuation
character.
This means that semicolons need only be included to separate
multiple clauses on a single line.
Notes:
1.A comment is not a token, so therefore a comment may follow the
continuation character on a line.
2.Semicolons are added automatically by NetRexx after certain
instruction keywords when in the correct context. The keywords that
may have this effect are else, finally, otherwise, then; they become
complete clauses in their own right when this occurs. These special
cases reduce program entry errors significantly.

Hello Chip Davies, (and all)
Could you point me to the proper section in nrl3.def that
a SEMICOLON is IDENTICAL
for the Language in question (NetRexx) to a CARRIAGE RETURN,
please??
Thanks in advance,
Thomas.
