Description from the author:
"Abstract Introduction
RxSwitchQuery (RxIsRun.DLL) is a small OS/2 Dynamic Link Library (DLL)
that interfaces routines for querying the OS/2 system WinSwitchList with
REXX.
Querying the WinSwitchList allows you to check if a certain program (OS/2,
DOS or Windoze) is running. RxSwitchQuery also allows you to wait for a
given application to appear in the WinSwitchList, or for an application to
disappear; this is useful in situations where scripts have to be
synchronised with running programs.
These functions cannot be made from standard REXX, and resorting to
tape-and-glue solutions of repeatedly calling external query programs is a
very slow and computionally intensive task. With this easy-to-use and
versatile DLL, you can easily and efficiently check for running OS/2, DOS
or Windoze programs from your standard REXX programs."
