[REBOL] Re: System-wide console?

Hi Geza,
All you need to run apps without /pro is a tcp server which executes the
string it receives... you can build it in other languages (Like
python... oooh... that was shamefull to say)...
I have not yet really looked into doing so, but basically, the tcp port
makes Rebol wide open.... And there is nothing anyone can do to close
that. and lets all admit that we've all had such an "evil" idea... ;-)
I am about to start work on a very powerfull notification-based MS
exchange-like corporate data system... By what I read of rebol-express
it will definitely be alike in some regards.
So Rebol is open, but its a question of putting the effort... in the end
it almost always pays off... So far, it the first time I feel that I
can really tacke any problem. I don't see many limits in rebol... which
is cool.
I understand why rebol/pro isn't free, and I most probably will be
purchasing it at my new job. I mean the cost of Rebo/view/pro is less
than the time it will cost my boss to pay me to find a way out like that
I proposed above... so why comlpain!
I'm happy to reward Carl and the gang for their efforts!
cheers!
