Browser? No. I didn't talk about browser. Rebol is better than any browser.
I noticed many people say that "this thing is needed", "I want that application", but not many people really try to do something. I think the problem is Rebol license. For example, I created two programs, but Rebol View/PRO is need (about 99$). How manny people buy that version, compared to the ones that use free version? More (my 2'cents opinion): some people think "since Rebol is produced not for free, then if I need a tool such company must create that tool. Why should I create a tool just to let them gain money?" (since my tool takes popularity to Rebol). I think these are very important problems regarding Rebol diffusion. --Alessandro On 6/17/06, Carl Read <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On Friday, 16-June-2006 at 14:24:55 Alessandro Manotti wrote, > > >Hello, > > > >do you know EyeOS? > > > >Look at here: > >http://www.eyeos.org/ > > > >Ok, if web+php+ajax can do this... why not creating something similar > using > >Rebol?! :-) > > You could say it's been tried with REBOL, be it the ViewTop or IOS.
