RxFuncQuery vs. RexxQueryFunction

| I hope this is not too dumb a question:
why does the former work and the latter cannot be found?
I can find RxFuncQuery in rexxref.pdf but not in rexxpg.pdf
and vice versa.

"rexxref.pdf" is the reference book for ooRexx. All commands, statements that you find there relate
to Rexx programs. From an Rexx program you would use "RxFuncQuery()" to find out whether an external
function is registered and can be used from Rexx.
"rexxpg.pdf" is a tutorial for newcomers to ooRexx (the first 100 pages), and then it is a reference
book for programmers (the last 90 pages) who use C, C++, Assembler, COBOL or the like to interface
with the ooRexx interpreter; hence, all the functions in that section relate to C, C++, Assembler,
COBOL programmers. Therefore "RexxQueryFunction()" would be a C function that allows a C programmer
to find out whether an external function is registered with the interpreter already.
HTH,
