I do not think so. In the example below, MY-WORDS is a block listing
the words that I have created in the script. The function
FORMATTED-MEMORY-DUMP prints the values of those words. In order for
FORMATTED-MEMORY-DUMP to know what words and values to print, I had to
specify the words in the block MY-WORDS.
If the words in the block MY-WORDS could be obtained from the REBOL
interpreter, then the function FORMATTED-MEMORY-DUMP could be modified
to be used in any script, and I would not have to provide a list of
words to be "dumped." (MY-WORDS). In addition, if I modified the
script, and added DATA-NAME-4, the FORMATTED-MEMORY-DUMP procedure would
list the new item without me having to make any coding changes.
I believe someone on this list mentioned an un-implemented concept of
system/script/words that would, if implemented by RT, solve this.
