I hope this happens sooner rather than later, because it seems weird
that a language is used for scripting, and is aimed to be able to
replace perl, has no standard means of formatting text. Formatting
text is what most perl programs do. If REBOL really wants to guide
perl programmers to the right direction a standard means of text
formatting is a must.
I thought once that Carl had commented this on the list, but I was
unable to find the article. I used slow Rebol.org then so maybe I just
had not the patience.
