Hello Geo! On 18-Gen-01, you wrote: GM> Exactly what is the difference if I say: GM>>> stampa: :print GM> instead of using 'alias command? What is the advantage GM> between them? Alias makes "stampa" THE SAME WORD as "print"; it is a different spelling of the same word. With the above, you assing to the word 'stampa the value of the word 'print.
>> alias 'print "stampa"
== stampa
>> 'stampa = 'print
== true
>> alias 'part "not-completely"
== not-completely
>> copy/not-completely "something" 4
== "some" Regards, Gabriele. -- Gabriele Santilli <[giesse--writeme--com]> - Amigan - REBOL programmer Amiga Group Italia sez. L'Aquila -- http://www.amyresource.it/AGI/
