Rebol — GUJ

Calma meus amigos! Isto não é mais uma folia para o carnaval.

REBOL is not a traditional computer language like C, BASIC, or Java. Instead, REBOL was designed to solve one of the fundamental problems in computing: the exchange and interpretation of information between distributed computer systems.

REBOL does this by integrating the concept of a programming language with that of a metadata language. It would be as if you could express and handle metadata directly in C/C++ code or efficiently write code algorithms directly in XML. REBOL accomplishes this through the concept of relative expressions (which is how REBOL got its name as the Relative Expression Based Object Language). In technical terms, REBOL is a meta-circular language. That is, REBOL acts as its own meta language.

Relative expressions, also called “dialects”, provide greater efficiency for representing code as well as data, and they are REBOL’s greatest strength. For example, REBOL can not only create a graphical user interface in one line of code, but it can also send that line as data to be processed and displayed on other Internet computer systems around the world.

Alguém ai já brincou com isso? Achei-a por acaso no forum do jogo Machinarium (http://www.amanita-design.net).
