ooRexx 3.0.0 and RexxTry.rex

| Is there a reason the Windows installer drops RexxTry.rex down under ...\API\RexxExit? It seems to me it should go in the ooRexx directory.

| Hmm, would that mean yet another "common" routine that is not in the
path anymore? I'm at home now with my 2.1.3 so can't run an ooRexx
test now.

On my system it's in the ooRexx directory, so no problem running it.

| Wel, I just did and uninstall of ooRexx beta and an install of ooRexx
1st release.
Rexxtry was no in the path. I found it in 2 places.
\program files\oorexx\samples\rexxtry.rex
and
\program files\oorexx\api\rexxexit\rexxtry.rex
Both folders seem to me to be very stange locations for such this
file.
Gert, did you install ooRexx "over" the beta version without
completely removing the beta? If so that's why its in your ooRexx
folder.

The first doesn't to me, since rexxtry has always been considered a sample
program. However, I also agree that it has become such a standard part of
how people use Rexx, that it should be in the executables directory. I'll
take a look at fixing this at the same time I fix the oodialog problem.
As for the rexxexit copy, I have no explanation for that one! My first
thought was the sample C file called rexxtry, but it doesn't seem to.

Yes, you're right. I'm going to uninstall/install it be sure it won't
cause other problems.

| Thanks again Rick,
As soon as you know where the "final resting place" for the dialog
files will be, please post it here. For now, I plan to just move the
files to the executable folder (\program files\oorexx) instead of
changing all existing applications or modifying my path.

| That's my plan. Rexxtry also will get moved there.
