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

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
Anton

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?

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

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.
Graham

well, if you did this

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

you wouldn't need the 'to-file
BrianW
17-Mar-2005
[336]
Actually, I don't think I need 'to-file in the first place.
Graham
17-Mar-2005
[337]
also, likewise with rejoin [ battery-dir battery "state" ]
BrianW
17-Mar-2005
[338x2]
Okay, i went ahead and changed "to-file join ..." to "rejoin [ ..."


Also threw in a little check for zero bit in calculating remaining 
time.
It'll go up in the next upload of the site.

I think sound is now free in the free versions.
BrianW

sound and call both are, aren't they? I'm not sure, so I just wanted 
to start with what I knew from rebol.com and the reboltalk forum
Graham

not sure about 'call ...
RT should certainly get around to mentioning that these run on Windows 
XP, and not just 2000
Vincent

'call is available from View 1.2.11, but I don't know if it's not 
just for beta-testing, and if it will be free in next official version
Graham

and if you want 'call from core, you need r/command.
this page should give you that overview : http://www.rebol.com/purchase.html
I wonder if that upgrade price from View/Pro to SDK is correct.  
The price for View/Pro used to be $49, and perhaps they didn't reduce 
the upgrade price when they increased the price to $99...
odd pricing ... View/Pro ( $99) + upgrade to SDK ($199) = $298 + 
upgrade to command/sdk ($199) = $497

but start from Command ($349) + upgrade to command/sdk ($199) = $548

Looks like you're penalised if you start from R/Command.

Graham, the overview was mainly so I had a single page linking to 
documentation :-)
Graham

http://www.rebol.com/purchase.htmlgives you links to datasheets 
on each product
BrianW

I meant links to the docs (Library docs, Sound docs, call docs, encryption 
docs)
oy. Or I could have just scrolled down the page on http://www.rebol.com/docs-view.html

I am very silly sometimes.

ah... wonderful news to wake up to :-)
I heard somewhere that REBOL LNS takes up 24 kb of source code
is that true?

Well, I am not sure how well RT did their homework? ;-) Users asked 
to coordinate PR activity, LNS announced, /Coop only planned, no 
real stuff to try and links on announcement page are broken, oh my 
;-)

posted in bold ... as I think about it, someone should try to call 
RT and notify them of broken links before Carl leaves on trip, or 
the announcement is not usable ...
