today i played around for the first time with the latest rebol/view. it's hard to describe what it is: an interface development kit, a browser, a scripting environment, an image processor... or everything at once? knowing rebol/core quite well i was surprised what view can do more (it's a lot). definitely smart is the way it can arrange interface elements. the basic ones that are needed for input and output are available. they come along quite "boxy" but the big advantage is their capability to return to standards known from offline application development. somehow it's like apple's hypercard, but much faster and easier. with colors and – most important – a gorgeous engine for doing network tasks.
