[REBOL] Re: Wildman project - PS3?

From: moliad::gmail::com at: 8-Aug-2007 13:08

hi all, there is also a possibility that a RebolOS would not actually have a need for such a thing as a "file". It could very well be that a generic concept of data would suffice... Thus there could be no difference between the (in RAM) data you are manipulating within your app, a structured set of data and "files" and conversions of those datasets into other "standard" format structures. They could all live within the same persistent memory space in real time... no need to "save" or load your data... it just IS or IS NOT. imagine you turn off your computer at any time (no need to even log off)... you restart it and its in exactly the same state as when you shut it off... no trick, no RAM dumping to disk to boot up beyond the hardware and rebuilding of cached data like visible graphics and such. Now I am not saying this is how the project is designed or foretold by Carl S. but I would like any RebolOS to go beyond our current limited views of what is . -MAx On 8/8/07, greg.schofield-iinet.net.au <greg.schofield-iinet.net.au> wrote:
