Rexx is a scripting and macro language commonly used on IBM mainframe, OS/2, and other platforms for automating tasks, data manipulation, and writing application scripts. Rexx programmers often develop, maintain, and troubleshoot scripts to streamline business processes, automate system operations, and integrate various software applications. Their work is essential for organizations that rely on legacy or mainframe systems. Rexx's readability and ease of use make it popular for rapid development of automation solutions.
