Following Massa Dijkstra,
may I point you at one (the only one) bad concept in Rexx, and therefore
NetRexx as well:
1) A String is a String is a String (tautology) ;-)
2.) A WordList is a WordList is a WordList (detto)
3.) A (Rexx) Stem is a Stem is a Stem (detto)
Thus, the associated *builtin* functions (methods nowadays) *should*, and
*have to* be re-arranged by the proper *CONCEPTS*, calles CLASSES
nowadays.
Otherwise, having oly Rexx (in NetRexx) as the MASTER Class, we are (again)
misleading the underlying CONCEPTS (maybe??)

I.E:
Those BUILTIN methods (formerly Funcions) need to be arranged in a
cocise CLASS Hierarchy, IMHO <grin>, as Mark always does say <END grin>
