    VisPro/REXX is a Visual Programming tool that is completely integrated with the
    Workplace Shell and offers multiple views, drag-drop interaction, popup menus, settings notebooks, direct editing, all CUA '91 features and supports the OS/2 Font and Color palettes.

    As it was discussed some days ago in the OS2World forum, Dave Hock has authorized that his OS/2 software became freeware.

    Sadly the source code was lost, but now the VisPro/REXX software is available for download at hobbes.



    The original installer of VisPro/REXX 3.1 Gold (1996-11-22) is available:

    http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-search.php?key=VISPROREXX-3_1.zip



    A WarpIn installer with several VisPro/REXX patches had been created and called
    VisPro/REXX 3.1.1.

    http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-search.php?key=VISPROREXX-3_1_1.wpi



    The programs/patches included on this version are:



    VisPro REXX v3.1 (1996-11-22)

    BLDTEST.EXE patch (1997-02-24)

    VPRSEDIT.EXE patch (1997-11-13)

    VPFORM.DLL (1996-11-18)

    VPDEBUG.EXE (2006-04-21)

    VPREXX.DLL (2001-04-23)

    Included VP_BOOK.INF and VP_MAN.PDF



    I will like to thanks Chuck McKinnis for providing the patches and creating the
    WarpIn installer.



    The software is now provided as freeware, "AS IS", without support from his original author.
