Why do you want to generate all the new words?
Why not use blocks or objects?
I have thousands of lines of rebol script and
rarely use more than 3 or 4 global words per script.
I mostly use local words and global objects.
Can you explain more what you are trying to do?
Then I'm sure people will be able to help...

Subject: [REBOL] Re: Generating words and global variable space
Hi Doug,
I don't think this is the solution.
Let me illustrate the problem:
forever [to-word join 'x counter: counter + 1]
>> counter: 0
== 0
>> forever [to-word join 'x counter: counter + 1]
** Internal Error: No more global variable space
** Where: to-word
** Near: to word! :value
>> use [new-word] []
** Internal Error: No more global variable space
** Near: to word! :value
I need to generate lots of new words without filling up the global
variable space. It seems this is not possible.
