One must know what are his own chances and then decide what to do.
Then, in the head of code, one could add:
;****************************
;ATTENTION
;the word != is used as a redefined op!
;ATTENTION
;****************************
By another point of view, that op! has no meaning in Rebol, so if i see it, i
cannot be confused by its standard meaning.
The big problem for me is: why we have this only op! unused? What will happen
in the future versions of Rebol to !=?
To be safe I'll use it only as a local word.
To say all the truth, i do not like infix operator in Rebol, but i must use
them because they are MORE fast then the prefix versions.
