I think you are referring to Parrot. I am not to
familiar with it..but it is some sort of unified
backend for perl, python, ruby..etc.. It sounds very
similar to Tao/AmigaDE virtual processor technology. I
have also been wondering... since it seems other
languages are going in this direction (.net, tao,
parrot).. is rebol stuck with stack implementation?
Hypothetical case.. something like TAO takes off and
is on every platform.. scripting languages can be
implemented specifically for it (non-least common
denominator approach).. yet have perfect portability.
Could a language like rebol be implemented in these
type of architectures?? Just wondering..
