Personal, I prefer '<>, and on my emacs it is simply a matter
of typing Control-o h, but it is nice to have the option. At one time,
when I was programming in C and have problems with my eyes, I wrote
a C preprocessor macro to present != as NE.
The cool thing about rebol is that ops are customizable, whereas
in other languages, ops are immutable syntax.
