Hi Jan,

A dialect uses REBOL values to build a language. So, probably the
concept is very close to that of DSEL. The only difference I can
see is that REBOL's function interpreter is a dialect of the REBOL
labguage, too, with "the REBOL language" being just "the REBOL
values".
P.S.: Jan, you might be interested in my dialect to create PDF
files, aka the PDF Maker. Let me know if you want me to send a
copy to you.
Regards,
Gabriele.
