introducing the SHOW statement.

Thomas.Schneider.Wien
  Hi there again,

     I would like to introduce the SHOW statement.

SHOW is like SAY, but it does display the variable names as well:

a_name='Mike F.Cowlishaw'
a_history='Author of Rexx and NetRexx'

show a_name, a_history

will display:

a_name  : Mike F..Cowlishaw
a_history:: Author of Rexx and NetRexx

The COMMA in the SHOW-statement is used to separate the items of the list.

More advanced features will be:

show a_name, a_history ON screen

whrere screen is a Java screen (using swing)

Any objections ?

Tom.

Well, for one there's not such thing as a 'swing screen'.
Also you cannot assume swing is present in every java environment at all. It is certainly not in java 1.1 which NetRexx supports.
