sure and if you share your cable link with 10 people that paid you 
10 $ a month then you will rentabilise your invest in 2 month ,)

The $200 is not an access point it is a client device.

i'd have to pay more to get faster cable ...
so, what do I need to rebroadcast my cable signal as radio ?

A Rasta 2421-D or 2421-T. Maybe I should think about a single radio 
unit. So far in the market that I had sold it has not being requested.

And these cost a lot more??

Yes those are the range of $1300 to $1500.

I am in the process of closing a deal with Jaime on the purchase 
of a D and a T Rasta unit.  Looking forward to testing the units.... 
 I was impressed with the Rasta Jaime allowed us to connect with 
at the hotel during the Rebol DevCon last year.

so, what does the small biz unit do then?  I'm now quite confused
Brian, would you use something else apart from 'difference ?
this is an existing mezzanine function

Nice tutorial Brian.

One way to notice very fast if you are reusing  words is to start 
a session with
  protect-system
or add it to your user.r file.
It can prevent stoopid coding errors --  like the time I wrote
    return: true
rather than
    return true

(that failed much later than you'd expect, and in a very strange 
way)

Excellent tip, thanks you sunanda

Are you providing printable views ?
BrianW
4-Mar-2005
[268]
no, not yet. It's definitely on the list though. Is that fairly straightforward 
with MakeDoc by any chance?
Graham

[269]
As it is, you have to print each page separately ...
BrianW
4-Mar-2005
[270]
Yeah, that's been bugging me since day one. :-)
Graham

makedoc just gives you one very long page .. so that should be okay
BrianW
4-Mar-2005
[272]
Hm. I don't really like having one very long page, though.
Graham

Chris has got some nice css style sheets to use as well
but a printable view could link to a single page view ?
BrianW
4-Mar-2005
[275x2]
yes, that's true.
Actually, the fact that 'difference was taken forced me to think 
of a better name. Much appreciated :-)

Great article. Kudos, eFishAnt & Gregg :-)


Question - is this program intended to run against the official REBOL/View 
or a beta?

I don't get a menu on top of the spreadsheet window
hmm... the code for that menu is simply not present in the article 
:-)

there will be a download...not everything is up yet.  The one-page, 
then a more complete one and the two spreadsheets will be in a downloadable 
archive.
It will work on View 1.2.1.. but without the buttons, although it 
could be made to show the buttons with a bit more work, but runs 
on the alpha as well... http://www.efishantsea.com/nano-sheets.zip
Gregg did a lot of the work, he just was busy this past week so I 
finished the legwork on it.
Henrik

work on it for a couple of more weeks and you'd have a spreadsheet 
that would be fully usable. this is so impressive.

spreadsheets soas not to tip off M$

Gregg did some Awesome stuff, like the simplest dialect for cells, 
shrinking by 50% what I had done...;-/

go for a quantrix style spreadsheet
eFishAnt

[292]
how do you mean?
Henrik
7-Mar-2005
[293x2]
very interesting way to make spreadsheets. hard to explain, but involves 
column and row naming and grouping
the Quantrix Modeler is one of those tools that lift productivty 
to a new level and is ignored by the public. just like rebol :-(
eFishAnt
7-Mar-2005
[295x2]
I did some things that support something similar which I stripped 
out...but that's not all...;-)
Gregg did the macro language very clever so it builds everything 
dynamically.  Spins the most colorful propellers.
