But Rexx still doesn't have ("native") COM or SOAP
facilities, right? My speculation about the original
questioner's circumstances is that he'll love all the
access Mark-assisted Python gives him to Win* innards,
to the point that, even apart from Python's other
virtues, he's certain to prefer it on that ground
alone to Rexx.
