+====== Automating tasks with Arexx ======
+.. while you can use a variety of scripting languages to automate tasks on the Amiga, the most common option for Amiga users is ARexx. OS/2 users, or sysadmins with experience from larger IBM systems might be familiar with Rexx, which is where ARexx originates from. For OS/X users, the nearest equivalent is AppleScript.
+Most Amiga applications have an ARexx port which can be used to remote control them. Many of these applications can also execute ARexx scripts directly.
+FIXME quick introduction to the *really* basic stuff
