[REBOL] add-on request for the free REBOL Scripting Language to your catalog
From: gerardcote::sympatico::ca at: 15-Jul-2002 1:11
Hello,
looking at your list ([free-compilers--idiom--com]), I found that there was no mention of
the powerful REBOL scripting programming
language.
Since this one is derived from Lisp and Logo, it can be easily used for many current
programming tasks and natively supports the
Internet protocols in addition to more than 23 datatypes.
A Very powerful addition that many of us - programming people - should know about.
I'm just beginning to learn it but already I can create some outstanding tools for day-to-day
use with a lot less effort than when I
use more traditional 3GL languages.
Look at the official site for getting the download of the free REBOL/Core or REBOL/View
(this is the one with an integrated GUI) or
getting more information : http://www.rebol.com
Both of them are really TRUE multi-platforms tools with support for more than 40 OS including
MSWindows, Apple Mac, Unix and Linux,
... while offering such a small footprint that nowadays seems almost impossible to believe
- from about 250 KB for REBOL/Core to 500
KB for REBOL/View.
