test-case-test: make test-case compose([ ... ])

Did I understand that correctly?

almost

'compose evaluates any parens in the block passed to it.  If you 
are passing 'compose a block containing blocks that contain values 
you would like composed then you need to use the /deep refinement 
of compose

ow.

; (i.e. 
test-case-test: make test-case compose/deep [
    ...
    test-result-formating: func [/local ed][
        ed: make (test-result)
        ...
    ]
]

I think I'll avoid 'compose for now, and leave it for when I'm done 
with the basic stuff in the test book.

but that's good to know, thanks again.

Np, you're welcome!

Fremowe: func [x y][return remove remove find x  y ]

Fremowe block "a:"

not remove a ?

what this function does not act ?

1) You don't have to use return word ...., function does return the 
last point of its evaluation

and besides that, it works here ...

He guys, I need you !!!

ping?

I want to get in a Rebol script what I print on a standard windows 
printer.

I use Redmon (part of ghostview) to redirect what the printer get 
to my rebol script
RedMon : http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/redmon/index.htm
I'm under Windows.

How can I get data from the standard input ?

I have tried "copy system/standard/input" and also "input", but get 
nothing !!
plis help ;-)

have you tried -w? that uses dos-window as console AFAIK.

or use a temporary file?

Ah, this looks like a cgi-stype call. i would try --cgi then. it 
should do this "call and get data from stdin".

cgi-stype -> cgi-style

OR...

insert partner ...
update partner  ; <-------
wait partner

conn: first port
wait conn ; such things in /awake may be a problem.

i would not use /awake in your case. more like
  forever[ wait port  your-code-here ]

also you have both server and client in the same process? this 'partner? 
i write such things using two consoles, one for client, one for server.

DideC: try to start REBOL with -cw

I have tried -c -w -cw, but I'm unable to pick anything from the 
standard input.

But I don't know how to handle that in the script :-\ (ports are 
not my tea cup).

My script :
   Rebol []
   probe copy system/ports/input

(Script is in %inp.r)
I have tried this command line (I'm on Win2k, Core 2.5.6) :

C:\> echo this is a test | rebol.exe inp.r
C:\> rebol.exe inp.r < test.txt
C:\> type test.txt | rebol.exe inp.r

i understand from the webpage that redmon launches the program and 
send it input, just as a webserver does with cgi. then try it from 
the real program, not from the console. i don't know about xp, but 
in win9x console-pipes are pretty broken.

REBOL []

write %test.txt copy system/ports/input

echo this is a test | rebol.exe -cw test.r

(hit ctrl-c to terminate it)

you get "this is a test" in test.txt

if you PROBE it, to see it on the command window you need a | more 
or something like that.
