A new NetRexx "how to" book, Creating Java Applications Using NetRexx is now available. [12 Oct 1997]

NetRexx 1.122 is the NetRexx reference implementation for Java 1.1. This release will only run correctly on a Java 1.1.x platform (though a NetRexx for Java 1.0.x is still available). [27 Nov 1997]

NetRexx 1.122 supports compressed class libraries ('jar files'), serialization of Rexx objects, internationalization, adapter classes (see the new Scribble sample), comment pass-through, binary methods, hexadecimal and binary number notation, and many other improvements.

For details, please see the changes list, and the NetRexx Supplement. The supplement is also available in PDF (Acrobat) format for viewing or printing; a PostScript version is also available, in the NetRexxD package.
