• Mike Cowlishaw's Page. Mike is the inventor of REXX.
  
• IBM REXX Language Page.
  

• Enterprise Rexx. The version of REXX I use for most of my CGI projects.
  
• Quercus Systems. The home base for Charles Daney's Personal REXX, an excellent version of REXX for Windows NT. It also has background information on REXX and related tools.
  
• REXX ANSI Standards.
  

• REXX FAQ.
  
• CERN Searchable Index of REXX Commands and Functions.

• Yahoo REXX Page.
  
• Microsoft Knowledge Base: Running REXX Scripts on Windows NT. The Microsoft Knowledge Base contains quite a few short articles on REXX.
  
• REXX Tutorial (in French). Good code examples, understandable even if your French is rusty.
  

• Writing CGI Scripts in REXX.
  
• Stanford Guide to Writing CGI Scripts in REXX and Perl.
  
• Perl vs. REXX.

• Code for REXX CGI Error Reporting.
  

• NetRexx Page. This new project of Mike Cowlishaw's permits Java scripts to be written with REXX.
  
• IBM's Object REXX.

• CERN Regina Page. Regina is a port of REXX to UNIX.
  
• Microsoft has a version of REXX for Windows NT, ported from Regina, which is available from Microsoft's FTP site and bundled in the Windows NT Resource Kit. I do not recommend it, since it is poorly documented.
