[REBOL] what if you squish one of your words?
From: galtbarber::mailandnews::com at: 11-Aug-2000 18:14
what if you make screw up like I did
the other day and kill one of your critical
key functions.
e.g.
first: "oh, well, it's only a vital rebol word!"
now, I can't get to the original value of the word 'first
to restore it. It is a native, and even if I
run another copy of rebol.exe to check out what it was
set to, I still don't know if there is a way to set it back.
Usually, it wouldn't matter, I suppose.
But occasionally you may be in the middle of
something you don't want to lose.
Is there any way to recover?

p.s. I tried this, but it didn't work with a lot
of functions, including source or help which use first.
first: func [x][pick x 1]
I guess first is heavily overloaded.
I think it works differently with ports, too.
