[REBOL] use of REBOL to build a simulator

1999-11-03 Thread marco . frissen
Hi, I was wondering if I could use REBOL to make a simulator that listens on a port and analyses the incoming data? Is REBOL strong in parsing? I've had little/no experience with REBOL but paging the dictionary, it is quite appealing. Cheers, Marco -- Marco Frissen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Test Engin
