I'd like to put my pennies worth in also. I agree with Mark, We shouldn't
force the authors to update their code. I think the programs were made
public out of a sense of community sharing.
I'm a newbie but from what I've noticed , it would be near impossible
for the authors to update their codes on regular basis anyway. That would
mean full knowledge of all aspects of the REBOL Language. My observation is
that We are all learning, some are a lot more advanced than others but we
are all still learning.
That's one REBOL's appeal to me, we can each individualize a level of
creativity that not available in most other programming languages. That's
part of the fun. Find a program, take it apart, add/subtract/change it and
make it your own.
REBOL: The Official Guide has a chapter called " the Lazy Programmer's
Approach to Cloning Functions." The principles there can apply to many
programming situations.
Sorry for the rambling,
