I tried it. It's kind of clunky and weird but intriguing. Some of the labels are still in a foreign language. First I thought it was German, but I think it's Norwegian. The default spell check language is Norwegian. It does strange things, such as substituting "/" if you type "--", and it's hard to find out why or how to change it. I think that if there were full attention to these details it would be very successful, as there is a lot to like about the product. It is surprisingly useful for web page design, for example, but the weird aspects made me leave it after a while. -- JULES SIEGEL Apdo 1764 Cancun Q.

Personally, I'd say that a discussion board/BBS system would be step one, with file archives and email alerts being step two. I would welcome this, plus the changes previously proposed to Selma. A complete application like this would be a powerful promotion tool, too. I've been trying to put together a system to send out press releases using free Perl/CGI scripts as a prototype. What a hairball! Suppose you could offer a whole package -- just fill in the blanks -- maybe add credit card billing, shopping cart and database modules? I'd call it E-Commerce Imbecile. Never mind for dummies, how about imbeciles like me? -- JULES SIEGEL Apdo 1764 Cancun Q. Roo 77501 http://www.cafecancun.com Fax1.530.706.8739 Tel 1.52.98 83.36.29

I am tempted to try this one out. I am a non-programmer new to the list. I might be working with Rebol soon, and it is possible that I will have a patron who would sponsor tutorials for me and my son, 16, to learn Rebol programming. As I am a writer, these lessons could then be developed into a commercial or non-commercial tutorial. I'd be interested in hearing some ideas on the feasibility of this as well as a show of hands from possible tutors. -- JULES SIEGEL Apdo 1764 Cancun Q.
