         command to restore the REXX files:

                 tar -xvf /dev/fd\#

      3. Create symbolic links from each of the files to the
         locations listed below:

                 rexx         /usr/bin
                 librexx.a    /usr/lib
                 rexxaix.cat  /usr/lib/nls/msg/En_US
                 rxqueue      /usr/bin
                 rxqpull      /usr/bin
                 rxqpush      /usr/bin
                 aixqapi      /usr/bin

                 rexxsaa.h    /usr/include
                 rexxtype.h   /usr/include
