[REBOL] Re: relative expressions

Hi Maarten, On Tuesday, April 1, 2003, 10:16:20 PM, you wrote: MK> I think we may end up in an operator overloading discussion. But then MK> -as always- more elegant in Rebol. REBOL natives are highly overloaded; in particular, ACTION!s are basically methods that can be applied to values, and whose action depends on the type of the value. Of course, this can get confusing. However, having a different function for each different type would be even more confusing: if you are doing the same action, use the same ACTION!. :-) Regards, Gabriele. -- Gabriele Santilli <[g--santilli--tiscalinet--it]> -- REBOL Programmer Amigan -- AGI L'Aquila -- REB: http://web.tiscali.it/rebol/index.r
