any-is?: func [ 'PRE s ] [
	while [ not tail? s ] [ s: next insert s PRE ]
	any head s
]

you mean without the reduce?

if it works without it it would bebetter.. then it would also be 
lazy as any is

>> any-is? empty? [ "asd" "Asdas" "" none ]
== true

yes :) I noticed on that example also that it doesn't work lazy as 
any .. but I didn't know I can remove reduce

well, it's REBOL ;-). (*Don't* use REDUCE unless absolutely necessary, 
at least I do it that way)

aha, it really works as it should now

I don't know why I put it there.. did I try and somehow couldn't 
make it work or just assumed I need it

I suppose the latter

probably yes

maybe this behaviour was bugging me .. because I know I use the order 
of things in any or all a lot of times to avoid null errors and similar 
.. and any-is? always preprocessed all elements

so, now you know, why I "whine" against using REDUCE by default in 
mezzanines ;-)

:)

reduce is evil !! :)

yes, especially since we can reduce on demand as we are send args 
 : -)

BTW, (shameless plug) I am using INCLUDE instead of DO from the console 
when doing scripts, since I have an extensive INCLUDE-PATH, so I 
don't have to write the directory of the script, just its name

hm.. that is usefull .. now I am copying my common library files 
around , then I could have them all in one location

not necessary at all ;-)

(my user.r first does %include.r, that is the most frequently used 
script here)

Max prefers his Slim, I know

BTW, Max: how old is the newest Slim version?

very ;-)  I fixed a little issue with interdependant libraries last 
month, but a part from that it has remained the same for years.

slim is practically the same as module in philosophy, and in many 
areas the same functionaly too.

yes, I remember our discussion about it

I use slim and prebol together within the sdk, it works very well. 
 I should use %include.r though, its much better and would solve 
a few little complexities I have with using the prerebol.r

when I get to working on the linking within distro-bot, I'll use 
%include.r instead of prebol.r... I also want to integreate %run.r 
from rebol.org into it.

it is quite surprising for me, that Carl is not a fan of the PREBOL 
approach, taking into account, that he invented it. I had a version 
of INCLUDE before PREBOL came and adapted it to the PREBOL standard 
afterwards

Carl's mind is too dynamic for static linking.

...but in REBOL nothing is static

prebol is... you have to build your script before executing it.... 
which is why I prefer %include.r

aha, that is what you mean

and slim, which has the same dynamic and static linking capabilities.

...but INCLUDE (in essence) is just a combination of PREBOL and DO, 
so nothing really new

IMHO Carl should use %include.r in the next releases of sdk (R2 or 
R3).

Not invented here
 may be a problem...

...but I will try to convince him

yes Carl does seem to have that trait... which many of us share. 
 ;-)

(that is why we use REBOL ;-) - to  be able to do everything on our 
own

use the angle that is actually simpler to use than prebol... cause 
it really is.

should write that to the discussion page

I do think that Carl is starting to open up to other people's ideas. 
 most of the bad decisions in R1 & R2 where not of Carl's design... 
so that usually makes one weary.

but now that he has a group of like-minded people, changes are much 
lower that we don't think in the same lines.

changes = chances

I think he will accept ideas as long as they are well tested and 
the code is up to his standards.

but the philosphy must also align.  and that is usually where he 
is harder to convince.

it helps if you know his philosophies or if he tells you what he 
wants.

yes indeed.

How do I bind foreach word value to external block? I want to do 
this:

rec: [name last-name adress streeet]

foreach rec data [print [name last-name address street]]

I need to somehow "bind it" :-)

you forgot to mention how your data look

Doesn't matter.
