'ML Article
[1/4] from: tim::johnsons-web::com at: 12-Oct-2002 11:13
Hello REBOLS:
Andrew and I have written an article about his
'ML Dialect. You may [and you should :-)] read it
at http://www.frozen-north-linuxonline.com/code_corner/code-corner_Oct.html
I've submitted it to rebol forces as well.
In my opinion 'ML should be part of a rebol standard library,
and documentation, examples and articles should be attached
to each component of such a standard library.
I've also written an article about DocKimbel's MySQL protocol,
[less illustrative and more chatty, admittedly].
You can read it at
http://www.frozen-north-linuxonline.com/pastIssues/issue6vol2.html
You'll find that in the middle of the page under Tim's Bytes.
(another candidate for the standard library)
Both these guys deserve all the attention they can get. They've
made life easier for me.
Enjoy!

I think the ML is very valuable. Though it could use some reviews before it
became part of a rebol standard library.
For example, I think that it can be more flexible by not requiring a
compose. I suspect there are other additions which could give it more "bang
for buck" too. I think VID is a good reference for the purpose of judging
power and flexibility for effort. All that said I think the ML type
structures have a good use for expressing a special type of tree and could
be used for more than just markup - and at some stage should have a home in
a standard library.

I love the analogy with the boat and radar. Very amusing :^)
Sidenote: there's a broken link to "what is mysql" .

Most definitely :^)

My concept of a standard library would entail such reviews as you
mention above.... It would make for a better product. BTW: 'compose
is not always needed - In fact I've never needed it in the coding
that I have done with it.

And true.

The webzine is better conceived than executed, there are
many broken links... and editorial digression is left to
the writer(s) <!!>
