No. But Rebol scripts are quite fast anyway. My CGI scripts in Rebol take
less than a second to run.

The server needs to run the Rebol executable in order to process Rebol
script at the server.

that control databases and access various DLL's?
The user doesn't need to purchase Rebol/View/Pro, only the people
controlling the server side do.
If using Rebol/IOS, I think each user needs Rebol/IOS on their machiner, and
the server needs Rebol/IOS. All this in my opinion only.
