Very cool. Wonder when it will be available? I'd much prefer to use Rebol, though without a browser plugin the audience is rather limited which makes it hard to justify using for certain applications.
When I mentioned that a browser plugin would give Rebol a great boost, here's the unfortunate official answer I received: "We agree with you but can not justify the investment for any more free software at this time." How do you guys get the general public to purchase/run your commercial Rebol applications? Do you provide an installation CD or disk with Rebol View on it, or a link with instructions on how to install it from Rebol.com?
