Summary Add an option to make the console display with MOLD/all vs. MOLD
Description The code below illustrates two possible outcomes when printing a Rebol block. The decision, which version of the output is more "friendly" depends on the user, in my opinion. For example, I consider the MOLD output quite "hostile" asking me to trust in some falsehoods.

My wish is to allow the user to specify, which method is used to show the result in the console. Can it be made adjustable?
Example code
block: [none #[none] true #[true] 0.1 0.10000000000000002]
print ["==" mold block] ; == [none none true true 0.1 0.1]
print ["==" mold/all block] ; == [none #[none] true #[true] 0.10000000000000001 0.10000000000000002]

Friendliness is in the eye of the beholder, and that is not really what you are requesting. Good idea though. Summary changed accordingly.

Alpha 100 hasn't really been released yet - it's still a target, not a source. This issue existed in the last released version though.

+1 for adding such an option.

I'll suggest a different idea.

allow the option for PROBE.

PRINT doesn't use MOLD, it uses FORM.

I've redefined probe to use MOLD/ALL about 7 years ago :-)

so count my vote for such an idea.

Max, the idea I described above was to adjust the REBOL console code to use MOLD/ALL to show the "== result", so it has nothing to do with PRINT, and I apologize for not making it clear enough.
