Just been thinking through this, while learning how to write a Rebol
parser in C# (it's very tricky without using Rebol's 'parse...).
Looking at the lexer/parse combination, Rebol only seems to need a
lexer, because the tokens are Rebol values. The only trickery is
balanced braces {} for long string values, and balanced square brackets
for blocks [], which could be handled by a stack in the lexer part.
My questions are about the interface to .NET stuff.
How would we fit Rebol and DotNET functions together?
Internationalisation: is it OK to "expand" Rebol's definition of values?
For example, a money! Datatype that allows British pounds symbol or Euro
symbol?
