if thats the problem, how about distributing your scripts compressed?
one has to use some tricks (select the compressed 64#{..} and store it
to a file using write %file.r #{..}).
thats similar effort as compiling?

*grin*:
%start-script.r :
rebol[] do %application-script.exe
with normal rebol-code there.
word & co will not open.
windows will say its broken,
but you its a special kind which needs to be started
by the rebol-script.
usual users will handle it respectfully and more skilled are clever
enough not to edit code with word? *gg*
