Thanks. That opens my eyes to what I refer to as Rebol Voodoo. One 
can easily forget the relationship between a dialect and Rebol. Good 
stuff.

It's the central point with Rebol, when a function is accepting a 
block as input, you can't  guess if it will be processed as pure 
rebol code, list of data, or as a dialect (mixed data and commands).
Data is code, Code is data. Never forget.

Are you kidding? It took me a long time before I stopped turning 
everything into a string with my own functions! :-)

i meant you can't guess until you read the documentation of a specific 
function.
'help and 'source are they magic keys.

*the magical key

Oh, I like the feeling when I can say "Oh, that's how it works." 
And then there's anamonitor. I can't tell you how many times I've 
gone back and forth with that tool. :-)

source.... I keep forgetting about that command.  thanks for the 
reminder.

Having trouble changing the data in a drop-down list...

mylist/list-data: new_stuff 
show mylist

works the first time but not there after

you must clear /append in the same original block  :-)

Sorry, not sure what you mean

you should clear the original block you supplied to the drop down 
list, and then append new items to it.  that should work.

new_stuff: copy []
foreach book books [append new_stuff book]

If this is what you mean, I'm doing it...

I'll write you up an example... its easy you'll see.

insert clear head mylist/list-data new-data

it uses texts...

rebol []

items: []


dark-colors: ["Blach" "Navy Blue" "Blood red"]
light-colors: ["Gray" "Cyan" "Pink"]

append items dark-colors


view layout [
	drpdn: choice with [texts: items]
	do [
		probe drpdn/init
		probe drpdn/words
		probe drpdn/multi
		probe drpdn/feel
	]
	toggle "hi" "low" [
		clear items 
		append items either face/data [light-colors][dark-colors]
	]
]

you can also replace face/texts directly I think...

I left the old "do" trick which allows one to easily scan a face 
to look up how it works... not sure many realize they can do this.

I was hoping to use the 'drop-down' style (not choice)...is there 
a difference with the function?

same thing... just replace choice by drop down

bingo! Thanks...

why does newstuff: copy [] not work here?

never mind

I got it

Hi!

I am trying to get running SoftInnov's captcha on my Linux.
Documentation tels that it is :

DRAW based : doesn't require View engine, just DRAW (can run with 
/Command on UNIX without Xlibs installed). 

But it seem is not right commandline switch - I am getting any way 
library errors.
Is it the right commandline switch?
Or do I need any way those linux libraries?
P.S. I also tried -v

/Command is not a command line switch, it's a REBOL product : http://rebol.com/command.html.
/Command is also included in REBOL/SDK.

So it could not run with rebview?
:(

you need a range of libraries to run it with View. it works fine 
with View.

Sure it can run with rebview but rebview requires Xlibs to be installed.

I already added all libs, but it says "Could not connect to X server"
:(

On my server there are no X, they have even no any hardware video 
connectors.

that shouldn't be necessary. I run it fine on a headless Linode server.

So I have all needed libs:

ldd /usr/bin/rebol

        libfreetype.so.6 => /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 (0x0ff67000)
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x0fe34000)
        libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x0fe00000)
        libXt.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x0fd7f000)
        libXaw.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXaw.so.6 (0x0fd16000)
        libXmu.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXmu.so.6 (0x0fcdc000)
        libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x0fbf3000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x0fb5a000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/tls/libdl.so.2 (0x0fb36000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x0fb03000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x0f98f000)
        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x0f959000)
        libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0x0f936000)
        libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXdmcp.so.6 (0x0f910000)
        libSM.so.6 => /usr/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x0f8e6000)
        libICE.so.6 => /usr/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x0f8ac000)
        /lib/ld.so.1 (0x48000000)

Now when i fire it:
rebol -v
** User Error: REBOL: Cannot connect to X server

** Near: size-text self

The same with -cs - in that case it just gives second line...

could it be connected with that fact, that it is ppc version of Rebol 
& Linux?

I don't think that's the problem

the problem could be that REBOL is trying to open the desktop

Does the command switch -v and -c does not prevent that?

Can't see the command line switches...

??

I'm not sure how to bring up the list of command line switches

I had find some descriptions for core in the docs but not for view. 
Just somewhere found by google in an example that -v or -w, but I 
know that in win system both of them are working. 
The -v opens rebview in console mode.

Sory - not -w

I you have the SDK, you should try with rebface instead of rebview.

<If>

no I haven' t

Command lines switches : 
>> usage

thanks

Which webserver are you using?

apache, but I have also ssh

and fisrt trying to make some hello in ssh

last try 
rebol -ivwt
