    What does body-of command?
    Code:
    >> ? body-of
USAGE:
    BODY-OF value
 
DESCRIPTION:
    Returns a copy of the body of a function or object.
    BODY-OF is a function value.
 
ARGUMENTS:
    value -- (Type: any)
    Then I try:
    Code:
    >> a: func [temp] [print temp]
== [print temp]
>> body-of a
** Script Error: Cannot use reflect on block value
** Near: make error! reduce [err-type err-id pick args 1 pick args 2 pick args
 3]
>> body-of 'a
** Script Error: Cannot use reflect on word value
** Near: make error! reduce [err-type err-id pick args 1 pick args 2 pick args

    What is a body of a function?
    It seems to work just with object to me.
