ATTENTION!
This is the solution of the sameness problem (followed by some comments):
------------------------------------------------
a: #{31}
parse/all a [b:]
------------------------------------------------
The interesting fact is that this is the only case (i know) where the same
data has two different datatype in Rebol.
Said in other words: two different datatypes share the same data.
In the above example, every string you insert in be, will appear "binaryzed"
in a:
insert b "^-^/^@" ;== "1"
a ;== #{090A0031}
The trick works on every any-string datatype: file!, url!, tag!, email!,
image!, issue! (i did not test all of them). An example with file!:
>> a: %1 ;== %1
>> parse/all a [b:] ;== false
>> insert b "^-^/^@" ;== "1"
>> a ;== %%09%0A%001
It could be useful to change the datatype of some data on the fly, without
copying it like the function TO do.
Who find the right solution?
