[REBOL] Re: Curl

Sorry for sending some of you on a disappointing download goosechase.
I was in a hurry, but probably should have added some as netiquette comments.
I thought Curl was interesting as a comparative tool and one which could help
highlight REBOL's virtues. On the surface seems to be offering some interesting
stuff, but then there's all this heavy baggage etc.
For example, how to make a simple Curl button:
http://www.curl.com/html/developers/code.jsp?name=Button&path=samples%2FdynamicC
ontent%2Fbuttons%2Fstart.curl
compared to: view layout [button "vote rebol"]
woof!!
cURL is also very interesting as someone also mentioned:
http://curl.haxx.se/
free openSource etc..
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/comparison-table.html
and it is nice and small [300kb]
http://curl.haxx.se/download.html
cheers
./Jason

Hi all! The same is for me!
My CURL installation dir is fairly large! And it seems more similar to a
Java applet than an independent full-featured application like Rebol can do!
