The current compiler was written with the aim of quick development till 1.0 is reached (because in the initial development phase, there are obviously many other important things to focus on). So, yeah the toolchain has some issues, eg. ther

Linux supports everything that Windows and MacOS supports except for GUI. As for GUI, https://gitter.im/red/red/welcome?at=595f60f50de4d2545e026e5... > No timeframe until we find someone to work on it. Though,

Okay... Right now I am busy, after some time I will work on it... Where do I contact you if the starterbot is done? BTW where do I find the starterbots for other languages? Edit: nvm, found them...

Sorry, i haven't looked at the website yet, so what I may be asking might be pretty vague and far from reality. Is the bots api available over http (get/post/whatever)? If no, will it be possible to have one? It will allow a

The current 0.6.0 release contains only Windows GUI. Linux and OSX support are a work in progress. Lots of stuff implemented, lots still missing. You can download qtxie's branch with the WIP code here - https://github.com&#

For me, it's - 1) Red - Small in size; Readable, compact and concise code. Its a powerful All-in-One Package with lots of great features as well as easy for newcomers. It can be used for low level as well as high level programming. ht

Elixir is great. Simple and powerful. I just wish the size of the Erlang distribution was small so that I could use Elixir for desktop apps as well, as currently it would require a 100 mb VM for people to run even a 10 line script. I have n

Well, code/data duality = homoiconicity There are many languages which do not use sexps but are homoiconic. See "examples" at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homoiconicity Yes, most of the examples look ve

Yes it was true. But not in this sense. The current IO support is minimal and temporary (IO is scheduled for 0.7.0). Also, the gui support is currently windows only (more OSes to come soon). So dockimbel and others meant that we should avoi

As rebolek said, yes, there is a layer. The blog states that `Flexible backend support that can be mapped to virtually any kind of UI library.` which means that the abstractions used are good enough to support different OS. There are plans

Red/Rebol is basically LISP without parentheses (highly dynamic and homoiconic). Syntax is weird but easy to grasp. Red/Rebol is basically a All-in-One Package as a tiny executable contains a lots of useful functions for which you

Red 1.0 won't feature many optimizations. So at that time the performance will be comparable to python. After that, their plan is to rewrite the codegenerator in a modular way so that more targets, as well as more optimizations can be
