Hi, Donald, you wrote:

is to name which version of *REBOL* is required to run your program
properly. The REBOL header needs a place for *our* program version.

        I think Carl agrees with me, at least in 29-Apr-1999. :-) 'Need
defines which REBOL version is "needed" to run the script (for example:
'replace). 'Version defines the script version number.

Why write English, when you can write REBOL? :-)
