You can try this in
Windows command prompt in all Windows versions:
C:\REBOL\test>rebol -wq --do "print {Hello World} quit" | more
Hello World
or this in Windows NT and 2000:
C:\REBOL\test>rebol -wq --do "print {Hello World} quit" | findstr .
Hello World
What surprised me, piping input into REBOL works as well, if output
is also redirected:
C:\REBOL\test>echo "Hello REBOL" | rebol -wq --do "print
[ {from stdin:} input ] quit" | more
from stdin: "Hello REBOL"

I've been trying this with /Core 2.5 on Win98 at the command prompt
without luck. I get an "Intermediate File Error" at the prompt.
Although the lines wrap here, I was careful that it was
entered as a single line.
Any ideas why it worked for Michal and not for me?
Thanks.
