So Rapid applications are basically complex configuration files.
Let's say you create a specification for this type configuration files and
Rapid is the reference implementation.

Well, it depends what you want
Thanks John,
You'll be pleased (as am I) that all of Rapid runs nicely under IcedTea!
Now I'm just grappling with the extent of the "linking" that a Rapid app has to

This is all really helpful - as you can imagine I'm trying to understand
this as fully as I can...

Dear Gerv
You are right. I did assume the output of the program Rapid is code for the
