Gregg 10-Feb-2006 [3416] | Under Developer/Users/Gregg. Run it under 1.3, it isn't happy under Link for some reason. I have some other versions floating around as well, but probably not too different from that one. |
Anton 11-Feb-2006 [3417] | Graham, anamonitor can examine custom objects, not just the system object. You just need to type in a word/path which refers to the interesting object. |
Graham 11-Feb-2006 [3418] | Ok, good to know. |
Anton 11-Feb-2006 [3419] | Yep, Anamonitor 2.0, next to the help button, there's a field that says "Name or command". Replace that string with "ctx-edit" for instance. |
Gabriele 11-Feb-2006 [3420] | i think anamonitor 3 can also examine ports, though i haven't tried |
Anton 11-Feb-2006 [3421] | That would be pretty cool. Actually, as cool as anamonitor is, I don't use it much ! I probably should go exploring in it once in a while. |
Henrik 13-Feb-2006 [3422] | all updates on Tester has been moved to the Tester group |
Oldes 16-Feb-2006 [3423x2] | how to produce nice formated blocks? (with newlines where needed - not to have all values in onle line?) |
hm, just found this: probe to-block {1 2^/3 4^/ 5} but I would like to insert newline formating when I produce block where I use repend | |
Sunanda 16-Feb-2006 [3425] | Hve you tried the new-line function -- available in recent versions of REBOL? |
Oldes 16-Feb-2006 [3426x2] | that's it:) thanks |
it's not documented here: http://www.rebol.com/docs/changes.html | |
Gregg 16-Feb-2006 [3428] | They're listed in the View 1.3 release notes, but not heavily doc'd. |
Sunanda 16-Feb-2006 [3429] | :-) I only found it by accident while failing to get something of Gabriele's to run under an earlier version |
Pekr 17-Feb-2006 [3430x2] | a bug or a feature? ;-) view layout [tl: text-list "" "ahoj" "" "cus"] ... just click on an empty element .... |
not even view layout [tl: text-list do [ tl/data: reduce [copy "" "ahoj" copy "" "cus"] show tl] ] works ... | |
Sunanda 17-Feb-2006 [3432] | Looks like a bug -- can't have a duplicate entry.....Try clicking on one of the "cus"s unview/all view layout [tl: text-list "cus" "" "ahoj" "" "cus" "cus"] |
Pekr 17-Feb-2006 [3433] | it looks for value instead of for index when hilighting? What purpose does it have? IIRC it was reported few years ago ... that is rudiculous behavior and makes the style completly useless ... |
Allen 17-Feb-2006 [3434] | Putting duplicate values in a list is also rediculous. |
Pekr 17-Feb-2006 [3435x2] | why? the list should not care .... |
but - for simple viewing purposes, when you want to display e.g. field values, and some of them are null = empty strings? That design is for nothing and there should be no excuse for apparent bug, which was reported ages before ... | |
Brock 17-Feb-2006 [3437x2] | wouldn't this be approriate ;-) view layout [tl: text-list do [ tl/data: unique reduce [copy "" "ahoj" copy "" "cus"] show tl] ] |
I agree that duplicates wouldn't be normal occurance in a list. Maybe a multi-column list would have duplicate values in a column, but each additional column should have other elements to make the row intself unique. Again, from a 'list' perspective. | |
Pekr 17-Feb-2006 [3439] | thanks a lot, Brock, that cures list-text pain :-) |
Brock 17-Feb-2006 [3440] | not bad, in 3 years hear I solved one problem! |
Pekr 17-Feb-2006 [3441] | imo that is not requirement ot have unique values only possible? I know that more than one the same value in one column is a bit weird, but still the logic is twisted - it should work upon position, not the content .... |
Brock 17-Feb-2006 [3442] | agreed |
Pekr 17-Feb-2006 [3443x4] | imo text-list is totally screwed implementation, I wonder noone else found this out yet? |
Bobik thanks you very much to save him today's headache :-) | |
he is kind of half a year Rebol novice and it is good to see those opinions ... those shared values etc. are REALLY a pain for beginner and such small styles bugs make life of mid-level developer (who is not fluent with View internals) View XY percent less sutiable to do real work ... | |
still areas with automatic scrollers, styles as tab, groupbox, etc. are missing in default distro ... and we were supposed to know what's in the pipeline for VID refactoring "real-soon-now" (c) 2005 RT ;-) | |
Volker 17-Feb-2006 [3447] | values for highlighting is much quicker coding than translating to indexes. ANd for the other stuff, a selfmade list is not that much code. although complicated. |
Pekr 17-Feb-2006 [3448] | yes, list somehow scares novices :-) |
Henrik 17-Feb-2006 [3449] | I'd love to get LIST-VIEW into /view, if the quality can get high enough. |
Gregg 17-Feb-2006 [3450] | TEXT-LIST definitely has issues, but works well in many simple cases. I think we'd all love to have LIST-VIEW in there, though I have to spend some time with it to make suggestions, so it's good fit with other VID styles (client side, in VID). I think that's what has kept changes out of VID in general. |
Allen 19-Feb-2006 [3451] | Ideally the Value and Text should be two different elements, like they can be in html selects. |
CharlesW 20-Feb-2006 [3452] | Can anyone tell me if there are any efforts to embed core into a device or embedded controller. Given its light size, it would be perfect for routers, applicances, etc.. |
Graham 20-Feb-2006 [3453] | www.whywire.com runs Rebol in their routers. |
Ryan 20-Feb-2006 [3454] | I heard last night that there is a new linksys router that you can install linux software into. Of course, REBOL was the first thing to come to mind. |
Graham 20-Feb-2006 [3455] | Most of the early linksys routers are linux based. |
CharlesW 20-Feb-2006 [3456x2] | Do you know what type of controller Whywire is usting? |
If an early links router was linux based, wouldnt you need the source code for rebol to compile it for that platform? | |
JaimeVargas 20-Feb-2006 [3458x2] | We use our own mother boards based on x86 cpu(s). |
Linksys is planning to discontinue their linux products and move to VxWorks based ones. | |
CharlesW 20-Feb-2006 [3460] | I guess using x86 would simplify things quite a bit from a development standpoint. I would assume much more expensive over a rabbit2000 or similar. Do you know what types of controllers the linksys utilized? |
JaimeVargas 20-Feb-2006 [3461] | I believe they are MIPS based cpu(s). |
Pekr 21-Feb-2006 [3462x2] | what registry value 'browse refers to? Bobik has some screwed OS isntall, after removing FF from his PC, browse does not start IE. IE is checked as a default browser, but it still does not seem to work ... |
ok, solved - there is a button to renew internet related settings in control panel/internet settings/programs ... | |
JaimeVargas 21-Feb-2006 [3464] | I think I found some errors on the tuple math with rebol. This results don't make any sense to me. Does anyone agree that these are bugs? >> 1.2.3 or -253 == 0.0.0 >> 1.2.3 and -253 == 1.2.3 >> 1.2.3 xor -253 == 0.0.0 >> 1.2.3 xor 512 == 255.255.255 >> 1.2.3 or 512 == 255.255.255 >> 1.2.3 and 512 == 0.0.0 |
Geomol 21-Feb-2006 [3465] | Well, each of the elements (numbers) in a tuple is an integer from 0-255. Doing a binary operation with that restriction and an integer without that restriction should maybe return none or an error? I guess, REBOL is optimized for speed doing this, so the result is undefined. (You can probably guess some internal rules/side-effects.) |
