congratulations to both of you =) life IS SWEET !

A REBOL VM or "what I did on my summer vacation":
http://www.rebol.net/article/0196.html

congratulations to all 3 of you, Robert!

sorry carl i think vacations are just hiking around the mountains 
or relaxing along the beach =) and yes i think everybody deserves 
some time off even CEO's.

vacation? what's that?

Vacation is the lifetime, when you are allowed to go your job tasks 
as a hobby :-)

go=do .... ah, wrong group ...

Ahh yes Henrik welcome to my world...vacation is in reality  a non 
exsiting word for some of us =(

Thanks to all of you.

Graham, I'm not married ;-)) (yet) but step-by-step.

Active Viewtop ...
I have added some "activity" to the viewtop ...
- index.r files may be 'COMPOSEd before being displayed

- added 'actions to index.r: they have a block which will be 'DOne 
on click

- added groups to group viewtop icons (group effects are possible)

- added the possibility to split the viewtop, so you can have a view 
script on the right half of the viewtop, e.g. to display a clock, 
calendar, ....

All batteries and some examples are included.
Based on 1.3.1 viewtop code.
Tested on /View 1.3.1.3.1 (WinXP).

Sorry, this will open a LOT of security holes, so you should _really_ 
think about whether you want to use it.
I think all places I changed are flagged with (iho)


and finally, here is the link: http://www.h-o-h.org/active-viewtop.r

Have fun!

Sept 1 has been designated as a "don't buy a drop of gas" day as 
a protest, passing this on...

Darn, I won't be able to protest. Never buy gas :-)

Protest about what?

gas prices? =/

Images from Apollo Missions


The talk about language niches and "Lightweight distributed computing" 
in the "Io" group made me remember a REBOL program, I did last year. 
It takes images from www.apolloarchive.com and present them in a 
REBOL program, where it's possible to zoom, change light and contrast 
and others. Get it here:
http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/apollo.zip


First run the script "makeidx.r", which will build image indexes. 
Wait until files from "apidx_11" to "apidx_17_b" are build. Then 
run the program "apollo.r". Instructions in the first window. It 
takes time to get thumbs and images the first time, and the program 
doesn't have a load indicator, so be patience and wait for window 
to open after activating a control. It's possible to swtich between 
windows.

Have fun!

in case you missed it, OpenBSD and Linux versions of Rebol/Core with 
/seek are also out: http://ww.rebol.net/builds/

This might be a stretch, a leap of faith or something that may fail 
or not. I've made an entry in Wikibooks for REBOL, which basically 
allows anyone to write a book about REBOL. There are books on many 
other languages on the site and I thought that this could give REBOL 
two things: 1. A book and 2. Exposure.


Start your text editors at this address: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Programming:REBOL

A new version of The Rebol Directory Project is available. Amongst 
other thing, I integrated Make-Doc-Pro to FastMagic! (see the Description 
section of the Projects tab). This version of Rebol Directory Project 
allowed me to finalize FastMagic! and now handles login, security 
check (no one can modify the profile of other etc...) I am waiting 
for your input and encourage you to register to be listed in the 
RDirP...

To register, go to yje login screen

zlib compressor/decompressor using zlib.dll (version 1.2.3)
  http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/zlib_latest.rip
and you will need this Ladislavs' script as well:
  http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/memory-tools_latest.rip

New editor that support REBOL  colored syntax file. This sofware 
is SCITE 1.66 for linux and windows by default REBOL support is not 
activated. edit /usr/share/scite/ScitEGlobal.properties file ( MenuBar 
Options >  Open Global options File) search the line "#import rebol.porperties" 
and remove "#". Save changes (SCITE must be launched from a root 
terminal.) then edit /usr/src/rebol.properties file. Go to the last 
line of this file and set the proper path to your predered rebol 
VM version in the  command.go.($file.patterns.rebol)=....  Save the 
rebol.properties file ( this file can be located from Menubar Options>Edit 
properties>open rebol.properties). Once you make all those changes 
you are able to see rebol color syntax for your beloved rebol scripts.

the scripts are launched into the rebol VM hitting F5 key in SCITE. 
You will notice that the color syntaxe is very more advanced than 
the Crimson Editor one. And you have the  ability to hide the functions/objects 
inside code to make easier to read the script code.

Well this is the concret sign that REBOL  is being more and more 
considered in computing world. This is a good thing and a good reward 
for RT hard work.

for ppl that want even better syntaxe colorization for SCITE http://shadwolf.free.fr/SciTEGlobal.properties
http://shadwolf.free.fr/rebol.properties

place those 2 files in the directory /usr/share/scite under linux

I've installed SciTe1.66 + your syntaxes over my older 1.64 version. 
Instead of white background I've got black now, but that's not the 
problem.

The problem is, everytime I press'e' key, colorization is turned 
of off and 'e' does not appear on the screen!!!

I can type 'E' (e + shift) but not 'e'. I like 'e', it's on of my 
belowed characters and I was so dumb to not backup my older installation. 
Don't you now, what can be the problem?

I am not sur what your problm is. Why do you nd that ky so much ?

Anton :)

Shadwolf, thanks for your information, which I added to my FreeEditors 
page:
http://www.lexicon.net/antonr/FreeEditors.html

I hope you don't mind me republishing slightly modified. But I gave 
you credit, of course.

It's not only 'e' that does not work, I can't type 'v' too. :/

Nevermind, I made changes to original global.properties and now everything 
works.

Relevance to the Qtask market perhaps: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050920/ap_on_bi_ge/microsoft_reorganization

That is, "relevant"

Yeah, pretty much all big corps are pairing down, Sony is dropping 
from 7 divs down to just 3!  It will be relevant in about 18 months. 
 Then they have to decide who to buy next since they still won't 
be able to make it inside.


Just for the record, there is very BAD news for Qtask, for one simple 
reason, even if some company got it right, and started building what 
we are building, there will always be a lot of companies that refuse 
to work with company X, and we will be company Y-not-us?  I would 
be happy to be the Apple to the Sony.

Oops.  Sorry about the post in the wrong place, I'm in a far off 
lnad right now and response time is a little slow, so I hit send 
to fast.

NO CHAT HERE / use ann-reply group please

I made some changes to my site http://www.rebol.it/~romano/- added 
anamonitor 3 and other things.

We announced the DevCon that as of 2005-Oct-1 the BEER framework 
is now free as in "free beer". You can download it from here http://www.whywire.net/share/beer-sdk.tar.gz

I hope Gabriele can post the vidceo for my presentation soon, so 
that you can see how it works and its capabilities.

New version of beer-sdk posted. It fixes minor problems with the 
examples files and updates the API documentation. http://www.whywire.net/share/beer-sdk.tar.gz

Hello, for french people : the french translation of Core User Guide 
is finished. You could find it on the Rebol Documentation Project 
: http://www.rebdocproj.org/article.php3?id_article=197, in PDF 
version.
