[REBOL] Little Languages 1

From: joel::neely::fedex::com at: 27-Nov-2001 6:59

Hi, all, (Peeking out from under the 'death march from the black lagoon'...) Have a look at http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2001/11/21/lightweight.html for a report on a recent (17 Nov) conference at the MIT AI Lab on little programming languages. Lots of folks with different ideas came together and discussed with minimal flamage! ;-) Of particular REBOL-relevance is the section beginning ... "Joe Marshall gave a short talk on one element of the initial implementation of the Rebol programming language... " ... but you can read it for yourselves! It's nice to get a peek under the hood ... -jn- -- ; sub REBOL {}; sub head ($) {@_[0]} REBOL [] # despam: func [e] [replace replace/all e ":" "." "#" "@"] ; sub despam {my ($e) = @_; $e =~ tr/:#/.@/; return "\n$e"} print head reverse despam "moc:xedef#yleen:leoj" ;
