[REBOL] the utility of 'bind
From: andreas::bolka::gmx::net at: 21-Jan-2004 18:41
I will spare you my thoughts about REBOL's contexts and 'bind (for
now) but I have a practical question:
What is the utility of 'bind? No, I don't necessarily mean the typical
cases where bind is needed to prevent errors. What I'm really thinking
about are situations, where REBOL's behaviour regarding contexts and
bind is actually contributing towards an elegant solution for a real
problem.
I think I remember various parse-based solutions posted to the list,
that utilized bind. This is basically a question to those who
understand _and_ use 'bind to actually solve problems: What do you use
it for? Do you think REBOL's behaviour in those regards is practical?
Are you aware of elegant solutions based on 'bind?
