One of the reason I use NetRexx is that I don't have to deal with
brain twisters like ++ and --.
When I want power I use assembly,
when I want to impress (read confuse) somebody I use C/C++ ,
when I want to get the work done I use REXX.
Let's keep NetRexx as simple as REXX. rather than as complicated as Java
or C++.
An ardent believer of the KISS principle.

Hello fellow NetRexxers,
One of the Reasons I suggested using the ++ and *= is because it is
found in native Java. If NetRexx catches on with native Java programmers
as an alternative and easier way to write Java code they
are going to be expecting to be able to use the ++, +=, *=, etc.
I don't consider using ++ and += as a C/C++ thing, I consider it a Java
thing.
In addition, since using long descriptive variables is an easy way of self
documentation, having the ++ or += does have its added benefits as
I have said in earlier notes.
What do you all think?
