I think I suggested something like this some time ago.
What about componentising Rebol, and offering prepacked "lumps" of Rebol?
For example:
Base
Networking(Core)
Image stuff (as in Rebol/View and IOS)
VID script
IOS script
Then:
Rebol/Base = Base
Rebol/Core = Base + Networking
Rebol/View = Base + Networking + Image + VID
Rebol/IOS = Base + Networking + Image + VID + IOS.
Then when I need to manipulate images as part of a CGI and web browser
project (for example making a graphic logo in .png format), I could assemble
Base + Core + Image together.
This would also make it easier to expand Rebol in the future; just add
another module.
