Greetings

Greetings
    
I explore REBOL parse with a commercial project target in mind.
    
http://tryrebol.esperconsultancy.nl/
    
string: "a phone"
article: ["a" | "the"]
device: ["phone" | "radio"]
parse string [article device]
    
REBOL 2 2.7.8.4.2:
== true
    
Other flavors
== false
    
    
Could anyone explain the R2 – R3 logic change ?

There's a good summary of PARSE changes here:

Essentially the default string parsing for Rebol 3 is equivalent to PARSE/ALL in Rebol 2. You'll have to handle whitespace (or even split the string if you want to parse whole words).
