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

we intend to...;-).  I stripped out some revolutionary features in 
spreadsheets soas not to tip off M$

heh

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

A1 [  $412.32 ]

go for a quantrix style spreadsheet

how do you mean?

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 :-(

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.

to watch

flash is for voyeurs?

also makes for good demos, especially this one

Nanosheets: nice article.

I've backordered it..hehe 8))

For the record,  REBOL.net and REBOL.org both look good for the next 
three years.


But a useful reminder for all of us to check our domains before it's 
too late.

And not to lose the email address to which the registrar sends reminders.....Email 
may be dead, but it's heart hasn't stopped beating yet.

you guys have to have pure services in US then?

In CZ, we have NIC - central registrant, which does not accept any 
registrations and is only coordinator and State has its xy % of value 
there. We have to choose between various certified registrant companies. 
I did choose globe.cz and they are fine. They do care, they pay to 
NIC.cz and then they request money from me. Before the domain expires, 
I am notified, if I have nothing agains payment of next period and 
if there is any info I want to change ...

I have also unified portal, where I can see all my domains (actually 
something as 7 or 8), I can change MX, DNS entries, FTP, hostings, 
etc. etc.

huh, did not try rebol.com untill now, that is really a bad for RT 
to forget to renew domain ;-)

shouldn't anyone in US give RT a call to notify them?

Bo already did

Well, at least some refreshing new look after so long time :-))

I had to wait a week or more with my domain lapsed before networksolutions 
gave it up and allowed me to register it again with new registrar

they seemed somewhat reluctant to respond to my request to transfer 
to registrar while it was active

If you saw the original whois entry. it actually said it was expiring 
in 2006.

perhaps someone was messing with their internal clocks at Network 
Solutions ?

REBOL.com back up.

Steve, here you can download my contribution to the Spreadsheet Contest:
http://www.rebol.cz/~cyphre/cyphres.sht
(hope I win :-))

Help, Help, its a runaway spreadsheet!

VERY COOL, Cyphre.  That is way-out-of-the-box.

better than any Amiga screen hacks that I can remember...

however, functionality is an important critieria in the contest...so 
everyone knows the competition is still open...I have seen a calendar, 
some web stats, etc that have been done thus far...

Nice Cyphre.  Imaging what it could do with AGG. The first vector 
graphic spreadsheets

blocks
 of data ? ;-)

eFishAnt, where is this spreadsheet contest described?

my scrollable 300000 cell table face might be easy to adapt...  ;-)

Brian, trim works in-situ

battery-file: to-file join battery-dir [ battery "state" ]

seems incorrect

copy value to end (trim value)


I always have problems with these types of statements in real world 
data, cause if 'value becomes none, then 'trim will throw a wobbly

all [value trim value]

Oh I see what you're talking about. Yes, nice article, Brian. :) 
That must be very helpful documentation for beginners.

Thanks. From a beginner, for beginners :-)

Graham - What is a better way to create the battery-file filename?

Maxim: Spreadsheet  and/or Announce....just make a spreadsheet for 
nano-sheets.r from article, and winner gets $50 prize.

Brian, my first take on this was that [ battery ... ] would not be 
evaluated , but I see it is.

I think if I were to rewrite I would use 'rejoin instead.


Still, it's sort of a marker of my knowledge right now. I want to 
let it simmer for a bit before I go in and start trouching it up.

well, if you did this

battery-file: join battery-dir join battery "state"

you wouldn't need the 'to-file
