I don't recall ever seeing built-in variables TRUUE and FALSE, but I haven't 
read the standard.

http://www.rexxla.org/rexxlang/standards/ has ordering information and links. 
At $125, I'd just go for the draft, but it's probably worth it if you're trying 
to implement ANSI-compliant Rexx (sic).

Are these variables (like RC)?  Can the programmer assign to them?
(Consider compatibility.)

Where can I get the ANSI standard?  Would I have to pay for it?  (Years ago I 
had
a harcopy of a draft.  Semantics were explained in pseudo-Rexx.)
