well... i don't know about ALL my questions... (this is number 2) please feel free to ignore it... but on Rebol's own site under "features" it says, "Parser dialect provides advanced pattern matching (all the power of, but much easier to use than, traditional regular-expressions) And the question hasn't been answered fully yet, so ?. here it is again (hopefully clearer)... cat: [["fluffy" "kitty"]["orange" "tabby"]] dog: [["mangy mutt"]["black lab"]] so, im just looking for the "easier to use Parser dialect" that will answer - "if found cat AND dog then x: true" (now that is what i call simple) examples... foo: "I have a fluffy kitty and a black lab" TRUE foo: "I have a fluffy kitty and a orange tabby" FALSE foo: "Where is my mangy mutt?" False foo: "Where can I buy a book on programming REBOL?" False Not looking for a parse that will answer an exact string, but one that can use patterns. Thanks again.
