Well the way I use Rebol is pretty much for
simple scripts, for various reasons - some
licensing based, some capabilities based - I
don't find it interesting to build big
solutions in. I want Rebol to be useful for
basically hacking whatever system I'm on.
Because of this I naturally expect that the
way to get other people interested in Rebol
is to show them ways they can rather quickly
hack the system they're on. As such the
plugin doesn't interest me so much as
something running on a website, it interests
me as something running locally interacting
with the browser or other parts of windows
that uses the browser's rendering engine.
examples:
The IE search bar
Outlook's html rendering engine
Custom built toolbars and toolbutton
integration (of which I have a small example
running on my system, hoping to make public
in the next week)
IE context menu calling rebol functions
htt webfolder views integrated with rebol
Active Desktop (of which I have an example
running)
