First, thank you for the effort you've put into the ROT13 page at: http://www.miranda.org/~jkominek/rot13/
With respect to your page on REBOL: http://www.miranda.org/~jkominek/rot13/rebol/rot13.r and especially with respect to the "Note to others..." I suggest that it is unfair to condemn a programming language on the strength of an overly complicated, poorly-written function by someone who is clearly unfamiliar with the language. I can think of several ways to write the rot13 conversion in a much more natural-to-REBOL style. The quickest (for me) to write uses REBOL's object mechanism, and generates the translation table algorithmically at object set-up time (as a one-shot initialization to reduce risk of typos): rot13: make object! [ xlate: make string! 78 for ch #"a" #"m" 1 [append xlate reduce [ch ch + 13 ch]] for ch #"A" #"M" 1 [append xlate reduce [ch ch + 13 ch]] code: func [s [string!] /local result] [ result: make string! length? s foreach ch s [ insert tail result any [select/case xlate ch ch] ] result ] ] It would be invoked on a string by evaluating rot13/code somestringexpression and extending this to process an file (or standard input) is easy. Again, thanks for the comparisons, and I hope to offer the above comments in the spirit of assistance, not negativism! -jn- -- To unsubscribe from this list, just send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the subject.
