newbie questions

Hello, I am interested in using Rebol, as someone familiar with Amiga, Blitz Basic and C programming. I want to use it for general purpose text parsing stuff, and perhaps for web applications as well. I don't run my own webserver - so, would my ISP need to install a rebol interpreter? How difficult is that? Many thanks. -- ��`��,��,��`��,��,��`��,��,��`��,��,��`��,��,��`��,��`�� ep�jarjestelm�llistym�tt�myydell�ns�k��n!

In most situations, you can install REBOL yourself into your cgi-bin/ directory and execute scripts with .cgi extensions and beginning with a shebang.

Thanks for that - I think I'll start at the start and try out a few tutorials before I start messing with cgi stuff. Anyway, Rebol is great! Only complaint I could have is that the gui for the View demo window takes a couple of seconds to pop up - surprised by that because I've got a 68060 and graphic card! Maybe it's something to do with the fonts rendering..
