Hi REBOLers,
Tonight I decided to do some small effort to help REBOL getting a better recognition
amongst the others free languages community. So
I sent the following message as stated in the above subject for this email.
So the recipient and Webmaster of this site should at least consider to add some entries
about REBOL to his site :
http://1st-spot.net/topic_coding.html
I also found many other entries relating to REBOL by submitting the following request
on Google :
dr.Dobbs Journal rebol language
while searching for locating the interesting forum Article relating to REBOL as a member
of the
Programming Languages for the Humans
. It is refered below and many members of this ML submitted interesting material to this
forum.
Follows my content for the email I sent. I also submitted other small similar postings
to 2 other languages catalogs and I posted
one of them for review a couple of minutes ago to the REBOL ML.
Hope this will be taken into consideration by the recipients of my emails ... and this
will encourage everyone on this ML to post
some similar entry into any known "Language Catalog" that could permit REBOL to get a
better View - without any words play -
relative to the REBOL/View itself !
Regards,
Gerard

As a newcomer to REBOL, it simply seems to me that this scripting language should appear
under more catégories than it is now. I
suggest you that you add entries about REBOL to the following categories :
1- Under Main section "1st-spot coding"
a) under the sub-title : Tutorials
add an entry named "REBOL
Tutorials"
pointing to http://www.rebol.com/docs/rebolintro.html and to
http://www.rebol.com/docs/easy-vid.html
b) under a new sub-title : REBOL
enter a short description like
" The Internet and multi-
platform OS scripting
Language"
located above the "Ruby" entry
pointing to http://www.rebol.com
2- Under the section "Reviews"
Add the title of the following
discussion forum "Programming
languages for Humans"
pointing to the corresponding DDJ
Forum article : http://www.ddj.com/DDJForums/thread.jsp?forum=43&thread=653&start=15&msRange=15
3- Under the section "Scripting"
Add a REBOL entry pointing to 2
official and free open source rebol
script libraries : http://www.rebol.org/archive.html
http://www.reboltech.com/library/library.html
4- Under the section "Also CheckOut .."
Add a new entry named "REBOL/ZINE"
pointing to http://www.rebolforces.com/zine/
That's all for now but so this would better be representative of where the REBOL flexibility
is really shining !
Regards,
Gerard
