In Praise Of REBOL
[1/6] from: rebol::techscribe::com at: 15-Jan-2001 22:14
Hi REBOLlers,
I'm almost into my third year of programming in REBOL. Some of you may
recall that I wrote a book about REBOL last year, and writing that book
gave me opportunity to study REBOL in some depth, and spend 10-16 hours
daily working with REBOL one way or another for close to a year. One
might consider me a somewhat seasoned REBOL scripter by now, for whom
REBOL has by now become a barely noticable routine coding tool. Even
though my exposure to REBOL has been quite extensive, REBOL continues to
astound me. The syntax is so neat, and the language is so well
integrated that it is really a joy to code in REBOL.
I had to take the time off to air my feelings. Sorry for wasting
bandwidth.
A (random) heartfelt thanks to Carl and his team, before I return to
Nedit and continue working on my eval-webobject.r script ;-).
Take Care guys,
Elan

Hello Elan,
I always read your emails carefully, because you are
usually correct and concise. And you know a lot.
Seriously, I'd like to be more like you. :)
Regards,
Anton.

Agreed. I had the opportunity recently to write a simple search engine in
REBOL for a United Parcel Service web site. Anyone who has seen my code will
know I tend to use longer, more descriptive 'words while programming in REBOL
(helps to eliminate the need for commenting.) Anyway, a co-worker who uses
Perl regularly looked at my finished product and thought it was just an
outline!
