[REBOL] Re: Is there a REBOL construct similar to the "map" word as used in Logo

Hi,
<<Gregg>>
...
It's a word that lives in the context of the REPEAT block (bind gurus please
correct my explanation!). I.e. it is a word that you don't have to declare
and won't have a value outside the iteration construct.

<</Gregg>>
I am not sure that Gregg's explanation needs a correction. Nevertheless, if
we are picky, we can say something more complicated, e.g.:
It's a word that lives in a context created by the REPEAT function. The
function binds its BODY argument to the context.
The latter is a little bit more accurate than saying that "... it lives in
the context of the REPEAT block", because a context of a block is not
defined in Rebol.
