My translation of Paragraph two:
What drew you to this language?
The first seductive aspect of rebol is the independance of scripts
with regard to the platform of execution. Rebol is the only
programming language which offers such a new abstraction for the
programmer. It happens daily that I run the same scripts under
Windows, Linux and MacOS X. When I develop in Rebol, I do not have
to think of or take into account the operating system used.
Rebol is equally unbelievably gifted in the domain of data manipulation.
I love the dynamic aspects of the language like the contextual
evaluation which allows for example the auto-generation of rebol
code at script execution time.
Its architectural model based on a meta-language, its capacities in
the domain of network programming, its innovating aspects such as
dialects and especially its functional richness, make it a cutting-edge,
innovative development solution.
Thanks Graham for the google translation link, it was useful.
