The effort required has already been wasted as far as i can tell. Even Chipp could have .com objects in your stacks before rev does. Next, he will have .net objects... Im porting TAOO to VBS and we'll see where that takes me... I need advancedDirectory management and other than using MS's limited gui's, i can script it via Rev to control VBS. The only way to do that is to write
your own interpreter right?

NOT.

Forget xcode, forget bytecode.
Enter TAOO...

Same GUI, same code anywhere.
Runs best on RunRev naturally ;)

Xavier,

Funny, I am going on the exact oposite direction, I am porting everything to Rev so that I can have my own built for my taste working enviroment. I am porting a little contact app, an email app, a rich text app, a HTML generator, a Photo organizer, a MP3 Player... In the end I hope to have a environment that suits me, that needs nothing, one that I could use cross platforms and fell at home, the same way I felt with REBOL/Desktop back in 2000.

If I had Tiger and Rev 2.6 the world would even be better for I could do some eye candy to make my UI more elegant. They key is, let miniapps do the work they are good at, since all those miniapps are running inside the same engine instance they all can share data. Heck, in the Mac I can even use AppleEvents and Send to Program if I want apps in different engine instances to comunitcate, or I can go crazy playing again with sockets (it's plain obvious that my system builds arround RevHTTPd, old server learns new tricks)

The cool thing about Rev is this organic possibility that I can simply grow a fully working enviroment while I am working, like, heck, this needs to play mp3 also, so script a little stack to do it, tie it with the little clock you also built and boom, you have a mp3 alarm clock, tie that with contact app and organizer app and you have a nice agenda. They say a voyage begin with the first step, that a phrase begins with a word. My enviroment begins with on Startup, and that suits me ;-) no need for anything.

Cheers
