rexxapi.pdf was not listed on the documentation page.

This discussion is about making OOREXX available for more than z/OS batch and 
Unix. Implementing scripting languages designed for Unix are daunting for 
complex z/OS environments (e.g. TSO, CICS, IMS, Tivioli and more). A Unix 
process is not a TSO address space with multiple activities. It's not a CICS or 
IMS transaction.
