[REBOL] Re: grid style demo

Hi Anton, et al
<< I think my grid has different goals than the grid being discussed most
recently here on the list. I don't think it's really suitable for showing
large numbers of records.
I was trying more for an auto-layout of faces, so I might consider changing
name to layout-grid or something.>>
Thanks for the update. As far as naming, yes, this may get a bit confusing.
grid
is the standard term for most widgets of the table variety, but
table
is probably more accurate. I think BVQB/XBasic used the term grid
for controlling the layout of child windows. "layout" is another good term,
but it's taken as well. :) An organized layout, as you are doing, is often
based on a canonical grid system.
I think layout-grid is probably a darn good choice. :)
