My brain doesn't have to translate entities anymore!

haven't looked at rebol.org for quite some time. It is starting to 
become really good source of rebol related info ...

I think, that it could swallow even stuff posted at various wikis, 
as it now features articles section ....

documentation to the script is also very nice ....

I like plegoff description of REBOL acronym - Rare, Elegant, Basic, 
Original, Light .....

I would welcome rebol.org to become rebol central, as it is really 
close - what it is missing is one box for 3 or four short news, link 
to rebol.net  .....

Perhaps someone can do an acrostics poem?

The news box is there, it's the news that's missing...the current 
box includes Rebol 3.0 Roadmap and Debian release.

It's on the front page.

I guess Sunanda is too busy extending Rebol.org to have time to hunt 
for news.

ah, that small one :-)

is there any framework behind? I mean - API? So that we could eg. 
perform search on ml, scripts, etc. from external app?

LDS

LNS?

lds-local.r --change: documentation added or updated --title: Library 
data services --owners: sunanda --author: Sunanda --purpose: Provides 
the client end of the REBOL.org Library Data Services interface --url: 
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=lds-local.r

To expand on Graham's point:

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=lds-local.r
Libray Data Services.....It pre-dates LNS by 2 years.

I was 2/10ths of a second ( or whatever ) faster :)

ah, thanks ... I continue to discuss some aspects in blog-chat ...

Petr -- somethng else you might want to look at:--- publishing a 
personal page on REBOL.org
You could use it to showcase whatever is important to you.
Npt many library menbers do as yet:
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/lmp-index.r

well, why not to discuss it here - I found curious Carl's request 
to follow reboltak.com. It is interesting aspect - with various products, 
I am really used to on-line phorums (most of them require registration 
anyway). I am less and less willing to subscribe to some kind of 
MLs. OTOH, the interface is slow. Currently we've got ajax as a cure 
.... to get back where AltME is for few years already ....

I would welcome more open AltME design - it is a good app. But maybe 
on rebol.org we could list on-line rebol related worlds, and provide 
free accounts, and maybe later on we can come up with mechanism, 
how to feed some info into db .... to be searchable

no matter what, I find AltME as the quickest channel to get answer 
to specific problem .... we just irationally stopped new members 
to join this world ....

if Altme2.0 (Altissimo, whatever) is open, we can plug-in here rebol.org 
....

It was irrational.  Just security.

And we have stopped new members.  New members are still joining.

Just stopped anonymous users from entering and possibly destroying 
data.

it is difficult to find out, how to join ...

As Reichart says somewhere, Altme REBOL3 is great for quick problem 
solving. But you have to find it first. Like most of the REBOLsphere 
it is close to invisible

(eg eFishAnt's recent serach for a REBOL hex editor. They exist: 
but can you find them?)


REBOL.org is just about the only exception to the invisibleness of 
the REBOLsphere -- try looking in Google for
   script library
as an example.

Sunanda - OK, maybe rebol.org could add another button - IM community 
... and link to info about AltME, and also to rebol.net altme chat 
....

I also miss one other button - links ... there is plenty of sites 
you could link to .... then your site is rebol info wise complete 
...

eFishAnt found it on his hard drive!

The first stage of having community links at REBOL.org would be meaningful 
content in personal pages.

We could the time them together or pull out highlights to make some 
overview pages.


If someone wants their website (etc linked to from REBOL.org), the 
first move is up to them.

Graham, but if the script had been in the Library, he'd have found 
it without having to ask on REBOL3 :-)

I recall someone had a program that indexed all the rebol scripts 
on the internet.

That's RIX:
www.oops-as.no/rix

Though it is sometimes not available, or it gets reset to start looking 
from scratch. So searches are not guaranteed.

Is q-plot.r still in the rebol.org library? Couldn't find it, only 
found ez-plot.r

I don't  think it was ever in the library after reading the message 
when Matt, the author announced it's improvement on the ML - http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/ml-display-thread.r?m=rmlQBZK


The source still seems to be available at  http://www.reboltech.com/library/scripts/q-plot.r

Can someone put these into the library

http://www.nwlink.com/~ecotope1/reb/format.r
http://www.nwlink.com/~ecotope1/reb/decimal.r


It appears from reading the authors' comments that at least format.r 
was submitted to rebol.org but is no longer there.

'format has a name clash with the undocumented 'format though

What undocumented 'format do you mean?

Hmm.  good question!  I must have loaded up a 'format from somewhere 
else ...

Looking at the code for the scripts you link to there, it looks like 
they could use a little cleaning up and optimising. Still, nice!

Is that ftpgadget that has finally been released by Prolific on rebol.org??

Looks like it :)

Formatting problem on this page ?

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=ftpgadget-package.r

Thanks, Anton -- I've fixed the typo in that script.

cool :)

Thanks for fixing that Sunanda!

What version is FTPGadget expecting? ran main.r and got
** Script Error: away needs a value
** Where: context
** Near: move: offset: over: away:

v1.2.5.3.1

Too much work needed to fix it for 1.3 before going open source.
