Hi Andrew, Seems like I didn't do my homework at all with the fundamentals of REBOL study. I simply considered that my current foundation of similar-like constructs coming from the other 3GL was sufficient but in fact after looking at some CORE DOC I was completely in the field.
Sorry for this trouble I was giving you. You were kind enough to answer me this way but I'll ask myself before annoying any other people the next time I will be faced with some similar self-evident "look at it by yourself before asking others" information. Thanks again Andrew!
