thank you. My observations:
- you are saying, that the normal equality operator is deep as well as
shallow ...
- runtime evaluation: I suggest to add "...and dialect evaluating
functions..."
- actually, every function is created as anonymous in Rebol. After the
creation you can give it a name.
- function composition isn't COMPOSE
- you wrote "if/then", but you probably meant "if/else"
- exception catching is more likely TRY, than CATCH (?)
- all but the first element can be NEXT probably
- we can use JOIN/REJOIN to join a list of strings
- exponentiation: ** works too
- number negation: (- a) works too
-L
