I think that both View and Core are written in C (there are some of
the native functions in View that are not in Core) but a lot of View
stuff is written in pure Rebol. I suppose, that if there will be
somethink like View/Base it will be without VID (so we can make our
own one:) On the other side I think it will be more usefull for encap
users then for me.
