Hi, yep right. First, I think that Rebol's dialecting will show nicly
what's possible with Rebol. Second, a nice visualization will always be
good for an eye-catcher. And you get the GUI version platform
independent.

Yes, I would like to support the original dialect and we could add a
different dialect. It should be no problem to support more than one
specification language.
For me it's mostly an education project. I need to become more advanced
with all this GUI stuff. Robert
