a: 6

b: func [] []

how do to remove all variables ?

Try the unset function  - http://rebol.com/docs/words/wunset.html


Generally, I find the core user guide at http://rebol.com/docs/core23/rebolcore.html
, 

  the function dictionary at http://rebol.com/docs/dictionary.html
  ,

 and the mailiing list archive at http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/ml-index.r

very useful in finding the answers to such questions.

Micha: variables cannot be removed from any context, you can assign 
to them another value, like none! or unset!

How many people do we think still using the ML as opposed to here?

all mac users

(good point!)

new people with no concept of altme

Although that could change by using the same avenues the info for 
the ML is given to point ot AltME/Rebol3.

linux users who fill uo their homes with altme cores every time they 
shutdown ...

Please say that again, I think I lost too many letters.

I get a core dump  from rebol/altme every time I shut altme down 
on linux

so I just leave it up and clean out the cores once in a while

Ah.

chances it are it is carls department not safeworlds

yes.

but it is another reason not to forsake the mail list

or too strongly promote altme on linux... its great! except for the 
core dump every time you use it

imagine what the /.ers would say

I was not implying stop the ML, but there are other ways to handle 
this.  My goal is one source of info, I consider both AltME, Email, 
QTask, and many other things as simply mediums to diliver info.

I am very much with you there

I want them all compatible.

Tomc, I'm afraid that is a LINUX problem not an RT/SafeWorld problem. 
 The problem with Linux is that its so fragmented it no longer knows 
its head from its tail.

You pick the way you want to interact.

a single source would help  fragmentation that has already taken 
its toll in this small community

A: Im sure you are correct

I'm not trying to justify inconsistancies, just trying to point out 
that even applications that only run on Linux experience a great 
degree of inconsistancy between distros...

Exactly, I hate to have information not centralized.  It should be 
intersting to see if we can bring all three of these (to start) together 
(meaning AltME, Email, QTask).  They each do something different. 
 but they should be compatible.  And in this context "Email" realliy 
refers to a relay Server.

to be a lowest common denominator it would have to be web based text

Rebol/Services ? ;~>

theorericaly :^)

odd, I've never yet had a coredump with altme

100% reproducible here

just curious: what distro?

redhat enterprise 3 workstation something or another, all patches 
up to date

It could be as simple as a Console setting...

weird. I've been on FC2, FC3, and RH7.2 with no issues. Haven't tried 
RHEL3 yet, though.

Or the way that you are running AltME...

.oO(actually, it's a mutant originally based on RH7.2, so I probably 
shouldn't include that in the list)

I experienced a number odd behaviors with AltME and REBOL in general 
on FC2...

console.r [ view layout f1: field 100x100 [ s]
                        f2: field 100x100 ]
s: funs [] [ p: open 127.0.0.1:80
             write-io p f1/text length? f1/text
             wait p
             d: ""
             read-io p f2/text 1000
             f1/text: ""
             show [ f1 f2]
          ]

serw.r [ p: open tcp://:80

         write-io console://  d length? d
         read-io console:// d 10000
         write-io c d length? data ]

plis help

remote consola rebol

should be

Is it possible for newcomer who installed Altme today to view older 
messages? I have one friend who can't see any messages in View group 
for e.g.

The groups should be sent to his computer. You can set the message 
limit under settings.

ah, dot trick worked, thanks ...
