> Anything else you'd want on your wish list for Rebol 3?

thanks for asking. Yes please:

-- Much deeper stack -- why not limited to available memory or user setting? 
2000-odd just isn't enough for some algorithms.

-- Bignums -- they are in there somewhere, you see it on the start-up 
messages. But I want to work with them.

--Better error messages. The sort of thing you get now ....

     ** Math Error: Attempt to divide by zero
     ** Near: 10 / length? a

....just ain't precise enough when I'm trying to debug something live that 
could be anywhere in a chain of half-a-dozen called modules.

-- Better tracing for debugging. I'd like something like....

   trace/word 'write

....that would give me a trace whenever the word 'write was accessed. Of 
course, it should work for any word including user-defined ones:

    trace/word 'line-count

would give me a hit on:

    line-count: line-count + 1
and:
    if line-count > 66
