Calling REXX programs in the CONFIG.SYS
You can call REXX programs in the CONFIG.SYS file by using the CALL
statement.
To do this, load the REXX support with (for example) BOS2REXX.EXE prior to
the line that calls your REXX program in CONFIG.SYS.
Example:
REM *** load the REXX support
RUN=E:\OS_2\tools\bootos2\bos2rexx.exe
REM *** call the REXX program
CALL=C:\OS2\CMD.EXE /C myprog.cmd
Note that you can only use the non-WPS related functions from REXXUTIL.DLL
in programs called in the CONFIG.SYS. Note further, that you must use
<RxFuncAdd to load each necessary REXXUTIL function by hand -- you cannot
use <SysLoadFuncs! See the next chapter for an example for using this
technique.
(see also the important note at the end of the section Using REXX if
booted from diskette and RxFuncAdd)
