School me on Arexx (emphasis on CED/SASC interaction)
« on: April 18, 2013, 05:53:19 PM »
First the info I have:
SAS/C version 6.2 I believe
CED Pro version 4.2 (the "about" command says 3.5)
Arexx (I have no idea - how do I check this version?)

This Arexx Script for CED -- I also have the version that came in the sc/extras/ced folder as well

I followed the readme in the sc/extras/ced and copied the directories over to rexx:, env: and envarc: as specified.

I have added run >NIL rexxmast to my user-startup

The problem arises when I attempt to load the COMPILE.CED script in ced.  
I try doing this by choosing "load dos/arexx commands" in the menu
The error reads "Sorry - s:ced/COMPILE.CED is not a CygnusED Professional Arexx script"

I am not sure where to go from here.  Am I missing a really obvious step?  I am a complete neophyte when it comes to Arexx, so any and all good pointers are welcome!

You are just choosing wrong menu item for the job. Select "Install DOS/ARexx command..." then enter number of the function key you want to use for the command (e.g. 1 for F1) and finally give the name of the ARexx command script (e.g. ced/compile.ced). That's it :)

Well, that's progress.  The script runs now, but fails to "Rebuild Error/Warning Database?"  then tells me "improper build or command".

All I'm trying to compile at the moment is hello world :lol:
