No time to deploy, nobody must move a muscle during the forensic investigation!

Predictable suite.^_^ Disable the feature in BIOS if possible. Branch prediction is a rotten plank that needs to be scrapped. It's a remarkably bad idea that doesn't deserve to be saved.

That he would not have been able to do what he hoped to do to meet other demands of his creditors. Pure speculation.

You can watch https://www.red-by-example.org/

But no one has bothered to write a complete manual like Carl did for Rebol, and the language is a partial implementation in Rebol which has a hybrid Rebol/Red syntax that must ultimately be bootstrapped in Red. In short, you have the scaffolding around it and if you are not a total fan or a dev of the project it is not even worth it.

For me, it even went off the rails before, when Nenad went to China because he was able to raise funds for the project. But he hadn't anticipated that he would be in charge and not the other way around. The situation seems to suit him perfectly. I don't think Red has any future at this point. In any case, the roadmap has always been stratospheric.

Does the quality of the paint and canvas prevent a poor painter from applying 30 coats? No, and it's probably the same with programming languages. Adding a low wall in the driveway won't change anything.

Yes, the presentation of the documentation is very good. This is something I miss when I have to switch to other languages.

I also use it to write CLI scripts to exchange data between programs. The wealth of extensions and good UTF-8 support are a plus.

IMHO the HTML5 parser is the best improvement of this version.

What I find most disappointing about most editors is the lack of dockable textareas to enter search and replace with regexps on single/multiple files. And the lack of a dockable panel with clickable links to jump to search results. Almost all of them use an infamous dialog box, or single-line text fields, or only jump to the next result: what a handicap.

Yet, manipulating text effectively is the most important operation. Incomprehensible.

EditPad does it and it's absolutely brilliant, but it's only usable on Windows. E

As you compare with Golang, I expected an option that goes beyond the banking domain.
