 ARexx Command List

 The following ARexx command list shows all commands that ScanTek supports.
 The ARexx commands consists of a Cmd Name and up to several Cmd Parameter.
 The Cmd Name and the Cmd Parameter are checked for lexical and semantic
 syntax.

 You have to provide the library "rexxsyslib.library", which is part of a
 standard ARexx installation. You must also have started the program RexxMast
 if you want to use ARexx.
 

 No error encountered during syntax and execution of command:

  Systemvariable "rc" is set to 0
  Systemvariable "Result" is set to a certain value if neccessary.


 Error encountered during syntax and execution of command:

  Systemvariable "rc" is set to a value greater than 100
  Systemvariable "Result" is not set.
  Systemvariable "SCANTEK.LASTERROR" contains an error string

 You can also take a look at the  ARexx Sample Script  that
 is described here and that is located in the Rexx Directory of your
 ScanTek directory.

 If you have created a ScanTek related ARexx script then feel free to send
 it to  me . It may be very useful for other people as well.
 If you have any suggestions for an ARexx script then send it to me.
