I did some research on this and found that the placement of catch, finally and end were all the same relative to do loop and select. The code in eFTE/2 set catch and end differently and ignored finally. I also found that 2 different indent style were used. One indented the end relative to the do the other aligned them. I am not a really a REXX user so I have no opinion as to which is more correct so I have add a variable REXX_End_Offset which allows the user to decide.However I have done it in a way that always aligns catch and finally with end since that was consistent in all the examples I reviewed.
