[netrexx-course] Visual Age Netrexx

[mcbrides]

Mr. Swainson,

Please, forgive me for responding to someone elses email, however the subject
has my deepest interest.

The attached email was sent to a public maillist that caters to NetRexx users,
much like myself. I therefore respond to both that maillist and to your email
address.

I can't emphasize enough, my desire to have a Visual Age for NetRexx for my
java development. I am working with NetRexx more and more each day and have
found it an easy to understand language and highly productive. You can't
imagine my enthusiasm when I found out that a Visual Age NetRexx product was
actually under consideration. And I've been "tuned in", waiting the progress
notices or updates that you said would be forth comming from one of your
collegues. Which, incidentally, there have been none. Mr. Swainson, I've been
waiting. <G>

Now, in reading your post to Mr. Andreas Zieritz, you mention that NetRexx is
still being considered for use in the "VisualAge environment". Is there anyway
possible that you can elaborate on this a bit? Reading your post has me highly
charged and sitting on the edge of my seat, as this is one IBM product that I've
been waiting for. Is there anything else that you can let loose to the public
about the Visual Age NetRexx IDE? Right about now, anything would be positive.

Thank you,
            Jerry McBride

I sounds more like they were considering Netrexx as a sort of macro language for the
family of VA like REXX is used in f.ex. the EPM editor.

I am still very much interested in more news about using Netrexx as a scripting
language...
