Kaj 13-Feb-2012 [2690] | REBOL 3 is now in there, as on the live CD, including my cURL binding. I upgraded Boron to the latest version. ORCA is also still in there, for the Syllable package manager. I also added Fossil and many other components |
GrahamC 13-Feb-2012 [2691] | Red/system? |
PeterWood 13-Feb-2012 [2692] | The Red/System compiler is written in REBOL 2 which I don't think runs on Syllable desktop. Some work would probably needed even if REBOL 2 is there. |
Kaj 14-Feb-2012 [2693x2] | Yes, there's no R2, but if there were, Red/System would work. It will be included in the next Syllable Server |
If Red/System takes a long time to be rewritten in Red, it might be an option to get it to run on R3, so it would run on Syllable Desktop | |
GrahamC 14-Feb-2012 [2695x2] | Is that particularly difficult? |
ie. are the differences between R2 and R3 that great ? | |
Kaj 14-Feb-2012 [2697x4:last] | Since Red/System has its own struct! library for R2/Core, I think it should be doable to port it to R3, which also lacks struct! (it's there, but somehow unimplemented) |
Not sure I want to spend time on it, because Red is next in the planning. But if you're looking to help... :-) | |
The announcement is now here: | |
