I plan on putting together a little tutorial for it, but if you were to do it youself as well, I believe that it would help 'imprint' evaluation concepts for you. (still working on evaluation myself) :-) And just for the record... I'm also in favor of a rebol-recommended pretty-print style when it comes to posting rebol code for public access tim > Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, > Arie van Wingerden > http://home.zonnet.nl/rebolution > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Tim Johnson > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, November 09, 2003 1:05 AM > Subject: [REBOL] Re: Please help me to promote REBOL > > > > That's a really pretty web site! > ---------------------------------- > (reb rings anyone?) > ---------------------------------- > > For those new to rebol(and for you gurus to critique if you so wish), > I'm including a subroutine that I use frequently. > > One of rebol's distinctive features is the variety of ways > in which code can be evaluated.
