Newbie Question

 [1/4] from: robphil777:earthlink at: 6-Nov-2000 11:14


Hello, I'd interested in using REBOL for different Web application that I'm interested in writing. I am weary of the fact that the "core" and "visual" consoles show "experimental" and that they have a "self destruct" function where I can't use them any more and have to download the latest versions. My question is whether or not its practical at this point to write programs in REBOL while its still in the development stage? Is REBOL in fact Free? Can anyone explain to me REBOL's philosophy as to the above? Thanks Robert P.

Rebol/Core 2.3 is not an experimental and is free. http://www.rebol.com/release1023.html http://www.rebol.com/developer.html (Developer heading) The manual you can find on the site has been written for version Rebol/Core 2.3. Brett.

In the download section you can find also stable versions (at least for /core), which don't expire. Experimentals are intended to let us play (and test) with the latest features. As far as I understand /Core and /View are and it will be free. You have to pay for /Command, for the runtime and for the forecoming /Express. But you can find any information on the REBOL site.

I've found the "stable " core version. Thanks all. Robert Philippe
