I know exactly what you mean. I'm writing a REBOL search engine for a client
and there was some concern in the office that I was using REBOL instead of
one of the "accepted" languages. But then I showed my code to the person who
was making the most noise. I said, "would you like me to put comments in
there for you?" and he said, "No need. REBOL seems to be commented by its
very nature."
Very true. Since I use 'words which are relative to what I am asking them to
do, I don't bother commenting my scripts much. Here's a sample:
foreach help-file file-list [
file-contents: read help-file
if find file-contents cgi-input/keyword [
append pages-with-keyword help-file
parse file-contents [thru <TITLE> copy text to </TITLE> (append help-
file-titles text)]
]
]
