[REBOL] word list
From: peoyli::algonet::se at: 24-Apr-2001 0:10
Hi,
I've tried to use a part of rebdoc.r to generate a list of all words
before and after a function call.. The problem is that I also get a
million of words that has no values in my lists, and this makes the
function unusable for the purpose I was thinking of.
The purpose was to generate a list before a function call, and compare
it to a list generated afterwards, to see if a function by mistake has
created new words.
gen-word-list: func [
{Generate a list of all words}
/local word-list words
][
word-list: make block! 1200
words: first system/words
while [not tail? words] [
append word-list first words
words: next words
]
sort word-list
]
Even if I unset something after use, I still get this word in the list
generated after the word has been removed.
>> unset 'a
>> word-list: gen-word-list
>> a: "test"
>> word-list2: gen-word-list
>> probe difference word-list word-list2
[word-list2]
>> find word-list2 'b
== none
>> b: "test"
>> word-list: gen-word-list
>> find word-list 'b
== [b back backlog...
>> probe difference word-list word-list2
[b]
>> unset 'b
>> word-list: gen-word-list
>> find word-list 'b
== [b back backlog...
...
Is there any way to 'clean up' system/words from unused stuff ?
