As it was discussed some days ago in the OS2World forum, Dave Hock has authorized that his OS/2 software became freeware.
Sadly the source code was lost, but now the VisPro/REXX software is available for download at hobbes.
The original installer of VisPro/REXX 3.1 Gold (1996-11-22) is available:

A WarpIn installer with several VisPro/REXX patches had been created and called VisPro/REXX 3.1.1.
http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/h-search.php?key=VISPROREXX-3_1_1.wpi
The programs/patches included on this version are:
VisPro REXX v3.1 (1996-11-22)
BLDTEST.EXE patch (1997-02-24)
VPRSEDIT.EXE patch (1997-11-13)
VPFORM.DLL (1996-11-18)
VPDEBUG.EXE (2006-04-21)
VPREXX.DLL (2001-04-23)
Included VP_BOOK.INF and VP_MAN.PDF
I will like to thanks Chuck McKinnis for providing the patches and creating the WarpIn installer.
The software is now provided as freeware, "AS IS", without support from his original author.
