Hi Mark, All Rebol scripts are documentation, don't look for all your answers in manuals, spend time reading the example scripts, each one is a mini how-to document. If you have questions on a particular script, contact the author of the script, commonly you will find their email in the script header. Take advantage of this list, consider the members of this list as your tutor. Ask your questions here (after you have checked/read the www.rebol.com/faq.html), your answers will be far better than any manual could ever give. We don't bite, some of us do drool though ;-) Cheers, Allen K ICQ 456820 > > > > I would propose a tutorial web page for starters.
