It seems to work quite well here. The console hangs when pressing
the "Home" key (and other special keys too I assume), I'll check
later if this is related to REBOL only.
Some statistics: the VP code for REBOL is about 240k (the linux
version is a bit smaller, about 230k); the translation to native
code takes 0.63 seconds and produces a binary of about 350k (I
don't recall the exact size...). It is a bit slower than the linux
version: a script I wrote (Quine-McCluskey reduction
algorithm, fed with 128 minterms) takes 129 s on Elate and 104 s
on linux. So the translator seems to be fast but not really
accurate.
Regards,
Gabriele.
