World: r3wp

But looks darn spiffy

IP addresses are just integers represented as tuples, where each 
section represents a byte value (0..255)

So if you want if you want to increase a tuple but one, don't do 
the math in tuples. Do in integer space that is this line. (to-integer 
to-binary ip) + 1.

The parentheses statement gets the integer. The reas of the code 
transform the resulting integer to a tuple again.

Hope this helps you grok it.

the parentheses improves readability, but are optional if you swap 
the operands :

next-ip: func [ip][to-tuple debase/base to-hex 1 + to-integer to-binary 
ip 16]

Thanks guys for your help

How do you make text blink?

open and close your eyes really fast.

LOL Brian.

flip-flop the font size between 0 and whatever other size ?

view layout [t: text "Blink, please!" black rate 2 feel [engage: 
func [f a e] [if 'time = e/type [t/font/color: either t/font/color 
= white [black] [white] show t]]]]

Sorry, T: of course wasn't necessary, in ENGAGE T should have read 
F (F/FONT/...)

view layout [style blink-text text white red rate 2 feel [engage: 
func [f a e] [if 'time = e/type [c: f/font/color f/font/color: f/color 
f/color: c show f]]]

 blink-text "Blink, please" red white blink-text "Yellow & Blue" yellow 
 black]

Thanks ChristianE.

Another curiosity question: Does Rebol ever get used in the embedded 
market? You know: cell phones, set-top boxes, high tech microwaves, 
etc.

whywire.net?

the wireless stuffs?... is that considered embedded?

Sure, I'd consider it embedded. Thanks

oh yeah, I'd already forgotten about that. Silly me.

set top box-->ask Steve (or eFish)<---

if I put rebol onto a small chip and sew it into my wallet...I got 
a rebol-embedded wallet :)

If anyone would like more people invited to this world, please speak 
up.

I'd like there to be a clear path by which new people could request 
membership....With the loss of the guest account the path is no longer 
obvious.  We need something better than having to know an existing 
member.

I'd like to be invited a 2nd time so I have an alternate account 
I can use to work around the resync bug (see !Atlme forum messages 
on Monday)

What would you suggest fr a better path?

an altme with a restricted guest account

an altme that has overcome the sync bug

(realizing it may not be in your court)

A form to email signup request on http://www.rebol.com/support.html
.. low barrier of entry. Then just need a Hat to process any requests 
at least once a day (unless you want to automate the process more)

I agree with Allen.

I sent Carl a feedback last week to say such a form should be on 
the Altme mirror pages. So someone finding those pages is just a 
click away from requesting to join.

I will be off-line for near than 3 weeks.
Happy holidays for those who are in.

Didier,  On your travels, look up Doc Kimble and have him fill in 
for you.

Just FYI, I removed some empty/inactive groups, and will be looking 
for more. Groups with only a few messages, or which haven't had any 
new ones posted for a while may go away.

How about you warn us of which ones you are going to delete .. so 
we can revive them if necessary.  Yahoogroups does that!

YourValues, GoogleGroup, Portal, Vanilla, Disaster Relief, Fav Blogs, 
Recycle Bug, Nederland, and France are on my list.

I'm going to miss DevCon this year...which I really regret...but 
I will be watching, listening and participating here as I can.  I'm 
there in spirit anyway...

Does anyone have a good simple time tracker to suggest.

I'm on Win 98.


I don't need much. Just start stop reset. It would be nice if it 
could count up to a certain number of hours, not reset when it is 
turned off, have a space to log tasks accomplished, and show some 
kind of  report when needed. It also needs to be portable (USB key) 
because I work at different computers.


Maybe something has been written in Rebol, that would be nice, but 
it's not an absolut requirement.

many thanks,

I've seen a couple of those written in REBOL.  I wrote one a while 
back too.

If no others come forward, let me know, and I'll run a search for 
it.

How can i make Rebol crash without the "Shouldn't happen" warning??

quit ?

I want it to quit.. but when it crashes, it pops up a window.. I 
want it to just go away, so my 'monitoring' script can just restart 
it :)

(I need it to free up the port when it crashes)

of if you are on windows xp

go to systems-> advanced options-> error reports (button on the bottom 
right)

(you can press the window key and pause) disable error reports (topmost 
checkbox) mi XP is in spanish so im just guessing but should be there

Hmm, already disabled

realy ?

then you must trow another kind of error maybe remote RPC ones

it pops up a rebol window

would you belive me, i never saw that popup
