[REBOL] Re: Cunning use of [], () & {} in R# and in future? Rebol versions?

a[ 5 : 10 ] instead of
copy/part skip a 5 skip a 10
?
how about extending path syntax?
a/5:10
?
a/(5 + 7 + 29 + 3) is hard to read IMHO. the "/" is very hidden now.
how about something spreadsheet-oriented?
could even be a whole datatype.
i would like to position inside a matrix, so having
a: [
[1 2 3 4]
[5 6 7 8]
[9 A B C]
]
b: skip-matrix a 2 2
;fictional
!>> b/1/1
== 6
!>> b/2/1
== A
!> b/1:2/1:2
== [ [6 7] [A B] ]
Half spreadsheet :)
Intersting:
>> 'b/1:2/1:2
== b/1:02/1:02
a valid path. with time-values.
now when i do a spreadsheed-dialect i could use rebol-syntax directly.
with up to 60 columns :)
