[REBOL] Re: Text markup Dialect
From: massung:gma:il at: 19-Apr-2006 16:10
I haven't followed this thread in its entirety. However, why not just use
REBOL as the data carrier? Is there any particular reason to use XML (which
is an absolutely terrible data format, but I digress) or YAML? Why write an
INI parser in REBOL instead of just loading up data that looks like this:
bob: bob-email.com
jane: jane-somewhere.else
The only reason to not use REBOL would be if you are dealing with an
existing format, or dealing with a format that needs to be shared across
different programs (of which some are not REBOL).
