It's the same as "get"
I that the key is that everything in REBOL is a value..
I can't give you deep golden answers but try this:

>> pwd: :what-dir
>> pwd
== %/C/rebol/view/
>> source pwd
pwd: func [
    "Prints the active directory path"
][
    system/script/path
]

now clear it and try again using get

>> pwd: none
== none
>> pwd: get 'what-dir

>> source pwd
pwd: func [
    "Prints the active directory path"
][
    system/script/path
]

>> ? get
