Reichart: <It seems to be connected to JavaScript heavy sites.> I've 
seen the problem on non/low JS sites --  though I don't know if the 
problem was triggered by hitting an earlier JS infestation.

I plan to keep running Opera on a regular bases.  I think there are 
more features than I'm seeing so far, but in a nutshell:


-	Separate Universe: Having a "another" browser is a good way of 
keeping things sepeate.  For example I might use Opera for my Qtask 
test accounts, and for checking up on some "grouping" of sites, since 
Opera is good at opening multiple tabs at start up (although it should 
stagger them since this is one of the speed hits).


-	Cache: It seems to auto pull a page it decides is the last version. 
 I'm not sure how it decides this yet.  But if I figure it out, this 
is a cool feature.


-	Magic wand: Great feature.  It should have its OWN password.  In 
other words.  Andy, Billy, and Carry, all use the same computer. 
 There are a lot of families that do this. IT would be nice to group 
your log ins to the same sites (AB and C all have separate Yahoo 
account, and separate Amazon accounts).  So they can basically Log 
in first with Opera, then go to town.  Even better would be an online 
service for this.  Can't wait for Identity 2.0.


-	Overview:  Opera has this cool feature of showing you a 3x3 grid 
of thumbnails of you fav sites.  This is cool.  So cool I want to 
see if there is a plug in for FF for this too.-

reichart, i have seen a FF extension that does that, but i didn't 
try it (so i don't remember the name either)

Reichart Opera is almost my only browser.  I find it very fast.  
Some sites (such as HP's PC sales) don't display correctly.  Voice 
is a very cool feature, though right now its just a novelty for me. 
 I think the tabl implementation is the best i've seen (and it was 
there long before foxfire and ie)
oh and skinning!  -- i'm using the tango skinning and it is very 
agreeable
oh and the new quick-dial is cool
the irc client is passable, the news reader is good, though i prefer 
using a separate rss reader.  exporting bookmarks and moving them 
to another computer is easy.
on a related topic, does anyone know of a browser that can preserve 
its environment between machines?  I would like to continue browsing 
where I left off at work at home
it would be cool to have the option to save the session somewhere 
online and then open it on another pc

why my code not work ?

Mchean, what is the "table feauture?"  
Joe, thanks for ShowCase.

I haven't used callbacks in REBOL, but that might work. SetWindowsHookEx 
expect a pointer to a C func, which a REBOL func is not, so that 
won't work.


Low level integration with the OS is not REBOL's strong suit. There 
is a lot you *can* do, but also a lot you can't.

Gregg: I can confirm SetWindowsHookEx works with Rebol's callbacks.

It's Rememberance Day here in Canada.  Lest We Forget.


I'd just like to state my appreciation for the efforts of those that 
strive to keep harm away by deliberately placing themselves in harm's 
way, for all those that have paid the ultimate dues for our freedoms 
and security and to all their loved ones.


To anyone that has done service; you have my respect, admiration 
and thanks.

Luke 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, 
which is Christ the Lord.

 12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped 
 in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly 
 host praising God, and saying,

 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward 
 men.
Thanks, Jerod!

John Lennon - Imagine

Imagine there's no Heaven 
It's easy if you try 
No hell below us 
Above us only sky 
Imagine all the people 
Living for today 

Imagine there's no countries 
It isn't hard to do 
Nothing to kill or die for 
And no religion too 
Imagine all the people 
Living life in peace 

You may say that I'm a dreamer 
But I'm not the only one 
I hope someday you'll join us 
And the world will be as one 

Imagine no possessions 
I wonder if you can 
No need for greed or hunger 
A brotherhood of man 
Imagine all the people 
Sharing all the world 

You may say that I'm a dreamer 
But I'm not the only one 
I hope someday you'll join us 
And the world will live as one

(I mean you're not just joking, but actually believe what you quoted), 
please send your Apple computers to me. :>) Merry Christmas!

me an OS X 10.3 CD if you have one. I'm desparate to get off 10.2.8

desparate !!!  Have you got a typing tutor too?

print ["happy new year for" to-integer (10 ** 3) + (10 ** 3) + (2 
** 3) "to us all"]


(There's a second way to do that as the sum of three positive integers 
cubed. Try it!.)

Has anyone done a "glossy tabletop" reflection effect in DRAW? That 
is, you have an image, it's full size is reflected 0x1, and alpha-grads 
away vertically.
I'm thinking I'll have to have a reflection face and draw into that 
separately.
Reichart
9-Jan-2008
[2456x2]
There are many ways to do that.

Show image
Show image upside down below it.
Put alpha gradiant of table colour in front of that.

It will alos look a lot better if you add a feathered ellipse near 
the base of the highlight colour from the image.
Another way is:

Show image
Show image upsaide down, but just the top 1/4 for example.  
Do an alpha fade on the image (if you have that funciton)
Do the same shadow trick of the ellipse.
Gregg

[2458]
I was hoping for existing code. :-) I already have the flip bit, 
but then couldn't find a draw command to let me alpha a four-point 
spec'd image. I figure I'll have to do it with two faces, which is 
OK.

Does anybody know where I can find some typographic rules where to 
break a line in english language? For example I guess that I should 
not leave  A or AN at the end of line, am I right?
Sunanda
10-Jan-2008
[2460x2]
Take a look at how TeX does it?
http://defoe.sourceforge.net/folio/knuth-plass.html
Or look up "word wrap" in wikipedia for some other pointers
Oldes
10-Jan-2008
[2462x2]
so there is no Rebol script yet? :)
And the algorithm is not typographic... it's just breaking lines 
to have the best spaces left. I'm looking for typographically correct 
one. Or there are no such a rules in english?
Sunanda
10-Jan-2008
[2464]
As far as I know, no....English can break at any word.

Most of the rules are for how to hypenate if a word needs to be broken 
at a line end, eg:
