Well, there's both TCL and PERL for doing this kind of stuff, but it's hard to know which is best for you since we don't know much about your problem. If it's a fairly general task, I'm pretty sure you could get it done in either. TCLX (eXtended TCL) would be my personal choice. 2) What options are there for running REXX scripts under either MS-DOS or (preferably) FreeBSD? You might look on cs.huji.ac.il:~ftp/pub/languages/rexx/alrexx There's also some sort of REXX on many of the Linux sites - I'm sure it'd be an easy port. Good luck.. Jordan -- Jordan K.
