....once upon a time I did that, when I was learning REBOL. I did this
with a colleague of mine and the reference model could be captured in a
much better name than REBOL: pointer++
That's what is. From pointer++ to binding is just a small step ;-)
And then you realize that what's great about REBOL is not that you can
do all this. That you can do it with such a small executable on so many
platforms and with such speed, *that* is amazing.
