[REBOL] Re: secure none (was: Re: secure: none)

I assume Brett means that if you put
secure none
in your user.r file, then you will become accustomed to
using it and forget about it. Then one day you run a
malicious or buggy script that wipes some data without
warning.
To prevent this kind of disaster I have set up two links
to run rebol/view. One with all my custom user.r stuff activated
and one without:
- D:\Anton\Dev\Rebol\View\rebol.exe -- "do-anton-user?: true"
- D:\Anton\Dev\Rebol\View\rebol.exe (as normal)
Now in my user.r I have this line:
if value? 'do-anton-user? [do %anton-user.r]
where the file anton-user.r has all my customizations in it.
So it is easy for me to drop back to "secure/compatibility"
mode to try scripts that have been posted publically.
It is also a good way to test my own scripts when I feel that
they are good enough for public release.
