Once I thought about it, it occurred to me what was going on. REBOL would
just output the last evaluation anyways. Such as:
>> a: 5 "hi"
== "hi"
or
>> "" "hi"
== "hi"
Since # doesn't do anything, it's all good to include it. Pretty spiffy.
Of course, if you try:
>> $ "hi"
You end up with "Syntax Error: Invalid money -- $". I'm sort of curious why
it doesn't give you "Invalid issue", then, but that's for another topic ;)
Thanks guys.
