I must confess, that I succeeded to convince a few people that i "designed"
a "data description language for ... (a specific problem)", while in fact I
used (a subset of) Rebol. It wasn't even a dialect of Rebol, but Rebol
itself! It didn't need to use all dictionary words while using my "library"
which was specified "inconspicuously" in "the header" of the description.
When I told them the truth, they didn't want to believe, because I used
czech words!
