[REBOL] Re: New to list

It is amazing how much you know with so little documentation.
Where did you learn this? I would love to find this kind of information.
I've made the first two changes. Those were very easy to do.
This one looks like a bit of reworking and I don't fully understand how
it functions.

I hate to seem dense, but my original code, modified to be relative
should replace the ". . ." in the three sections?
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your input very much. I just don't
like to make large changes without understanding why I am doing it.
Could you explain this somewhat? For example, I can find nothing on the
word "with" in any of the REBOL docs.
Also I still have the problem of adding and removing these during
execution in such a way that I can individually address them.
If anyone knows how to do this, please enlighten me.
Thanks again,
John
