NetRexx 1.124

Mike Cowlishaw-3
I have just refreshed the NetRexx site, to include the new links
released today.  There are no functional changes to the code (except
the promised fix to the Rexx.substr method, and some minor details in
arithmetic boundary conditions to align with ANSI X3.274).

(For those who like numbers, here's the NetRexx scorecard for 1997:

  Performance improvement (compiling netrexx.lang.Rexx): 2.7x faster
  Reported bugs/month over last 12 months:  0.75.
  New/rewritten lines of code:  11,200.
  Releases/refreshes:  16.
  Outstanding defects/bugs/problems:  0.

I'll try and do better in 1998 -- 9 bugs is too many; not my best year.
Apologies.)

No need to apologize.  Thank you for the wonderful language.

Wow! Interesting stats...Thanks again for your work. NetRexx has made it
easy for me to learn and adapt to internet and cross-platform
programming. When I first learned about Java, I thought that maybe C/C++
users would have a head start in using Java but I now believe that it's
the Rexx users that have things easy!
