I'm new too.. It's amazing allthough on many parts IMHO a bit mindboggling. Especially those examples found on Rebol site.. I really don't get how many of them work.

See rebol site for examples.. There is at least one: http://www.reboltech.com/library/scripts/shrink.r I hope this is something what you are looking for.

Considering how compact rebol code is and how much data you can store on one Series/block I see no real reason for panic.
