Get the source code of a "compiled" REXX program
Sometimes it's neccessary to get the source code from a "compiled" REXX
program. To do this, do the following:
Issue
set rxtrace=on
in an OS/2 window and call the program from this window. Normally you
should now have an interactive REXX interpreter session where you can
execute the following code:
do i = 1 to sourceline(); call lineOut "d:\rexxsource.cmd", sourceLine( i ); end;
exit
Now the file d:\rexxsource.cmd contains the source code of the REXX
program (normally without any comments, of course).
(see also Catching debug output, Special environment variables for REXX
programs, and especially Protect the source code of a REXX program if you
want to prevent this for your REXX programs)
