  That's all you need to know as business user except one more 
  thing: if ever your text contains any word containing "Red" 
  (red is ok) you must replace this string by "&#82;ed" (in a 
  future evolution, we'll do it for you.)

..but why? I don't know anything about Red or this, but why on earth?

A recent HN discussion about the Red language that is helpful if you don't know much about it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18843544

I love the Red language. I think this is an interesting experiment – and I’m not trying to be mean here – I found the page difficult to read. But I hope the OT continues on this path.

I've been working on something loosely related as a side project. It's a turing-complete lisp DSL that's made for generating HTML and CSS. Kind of like a scripting language that was made for the sole purpose of CGI scripts.

I like the priddy colors on black background, it makes me feel hacky while I'm learning a new way to do hack stuff.
