World: r3wp

Geomol,

Just read your NicomDB thesis and thought it was well done.  Just 
a quick note about a mis-spelling on page 36 toward the bottom.

If we think back to the four basic operations on a data record, they 
are Read, White, Rewrite and Delete.
I think you mean "Write" instead of "White".

REBOL postscript dialect version 0.4.2 is out, BSD license.
http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.r

Documentation here: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.html
Added PageSize with support for A4, A5 and US Letter for now.
Added images. Example of use:

do http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.r

write %palms.ps postscript [DeviceRGB page [translate 100x400 scale 
72x72 image http://www.rebol.com/view/palms.jpg]]


The file palms.ps is now a PostScript file describing a page with 
an image on. Try view or print it.

REBOL PostScript dialect v. 0.4.3 released.
http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.r

Doc: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.html

Added decimal! option for size in TEXT alignment. Moved TRANSFORM 
up front in PAGE, so it's possible to let a transform work on a whole 
page instead of just a PATH. Added description of COMMENT to doc.

In March 2007, Olivier Auverlot published his second major book on 
ÒREBOL Ð Guide du programmeurÓ.  Written in his native French the 
book has been well received, not least by Carl Sassenrath:  ÒYes, 
Olivier has done it again with another good book on REBOL.Ó



Olivier and I have been working on an English translation, "REBOL 
- a programmer's guide" for a little while now. The book will eventually 
be published in both printed and electronic form on lulu.com. The 
prices are likely to be Euro 25.00 for the printed edition and Euro 
16.99 for the portable document format version (pdf) version. (For 
those of you outside the Euro zone, Lulu also provides prices in 
Pounds Sterling and US Dollars.)


  As the translation is likely to take some time to complete, we are 
  providing exclusive previews of each chapter for those who don't 
  want to wait until the whole book has been translated. The previews 
  will only be available until the complete book is ready. Each chapter 
  will be published as a pdf once it is available and will cost Euro 
  2.99.


  The first chapter "Discover Rebol in an hour" is a hands-on introduction 
  to Rebol for programmers following the development of an automated 
  File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client. It covers many facets of this 
  highly productive language. It is available today at http://www.lulu.com/content/2092020



The next three chapters, "The Rebol Language", "GUI, graphics and 
sound" and "Networking and the Internet" will be available within 
the next few days.


  Olivier is the author of the book; I am the author of any mistakes 
  that have crept in during the translation.

Chapter 2 of  "Rebol - a programmer's guide" is a thorough grounding 
in the basics of the language covering variables, datatypes, lists, 
control structures, functions, objects, parsing and dialects.


The preview is now available at http://www.lulu.com/content/2160570

NicomDB
First full version of index-layer with all functions is released.
http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/nicomdb/
See group !NicomDB

Chapter 4 of  "Rebol - a programmer's guide" describes Rebol's advanced 
network programming features. Using TCP/IP protocols (including client/server 
programming), creating network protocols, CGI scripts, producing 
dynamic web documents, handling XML documents, using Web Services 
and the Rebol//View browser plug-in are all explained.

The preview is now available at

Rebol-code-colorizer 0.9.1 (just a small bug fix and added own color 
class for issue! datatype) http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/code-colorizer.r

Colorized source code: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/code-colorizer.html

Chapter 3 of  "Rebol - a programmer's guide"  is an exposé of Rebol/View 
the graphical version of Rebol explaining the Visual Interface Dialect 
(VID), the DRAW dialect, handling events with
VID, managing styles, and Rebol’s sound capabilities.

The preview is now online at http://www.lulu.com/content/2175653

Rebol-code-colorizer 0.9.2 uploaded http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/code-colorizer.r
(fixed bug with single escape char in string "^^")

Oldes, what about uploading your colorizer to rebol.org ? If you 
don't have the time I could do this for you this round.

ok.. I will.. but first have to write a script to automate it

It's uploaded, BUT  I found, that rebol.org has big problem with 
encodings... more in library channel

regarding callbacks.

Great News!  The release of 2.7.6 has arrived ---->  http://www.rebol.net/upnews/0026.html

This year's LibFlashCon will be held during the second half of June 
and for the first time will be open to all Library members.

See LibFlashCon2008 group for details.

NicomDB index and relative layers version 1.0.0 is released.

Electronic Arts IFF ILBM loader:
http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/rebol/libs/gfx/iff.r

Can handle 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 color images, HAM6 images (4096 colors) 
and HALFBRITE (64 colors). HALFBRITE hasn't been tested yet, as I 
couldn't find such an image easily. Handle both compressed and non-compressed 
images. This is an example, where rebcode would help a lot, as a 
320x200 image can take several seconds to uncompress.
Usage:

iff-image: load-iff %some_picture.iff
img: iff-image/as-image

img now is a REBOL image!, than can be viewed like:
view layout [image img]

Congratulations. Fork!

NTLM support library for REBOL v1.0.3 released. Download here : http://softinnov.org/rebol/ntlm.shtml


If you've had issue using this library before with a MS (NTLM) proxy, 
please give it a new try. It fixes a major issue with NTLM proxy 
and has been updated to work with 2.7.6.

First version of my HTML dialect as been released.

looks great.
I hate HTML. All those tags. This will be a great tool.

How does this differ from Max's html dialect ?

xml dialect ?

GLServer for Win32 is released. There also is a Mac version, Linux 
is still missing.
See group OpenGL.
It makes it possible to do 3D graphics from REBOL using OpenGL.

Curl NITRO is now beta at http://www.curl.comwill be welcoming languages 
other than just Curl.  Expect a relaxed RTE license soon. Like Rebol3, 
Curl is now on  track to only have the core remain proprietary.  
Pekr:  think Rebol on the Surge RTE  AKA Nitro !

Robert - Curl is our competition - why should we be happy about it, 
if noone from us here has any intention into using it? The good thing 
is, that I am chief of IT here, so I never let tools like that to 
let-in :-)

Version 1.1.0 of load-tga for TARGA (TGA) images:
http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/rebol/libs/gfx/tga.r

Added support for RLE (run-length encoded) images (can be produced 
with e.g. OS X Preview and most paint programs). The function can 
now load image type 2 (Uncompressed, True-color image) and image 
type 10 (Run-length encoded, True-color image).

<-QM-> Version 0.3.1

http://www.ross-gill.com/QM/


After much wrestling with what the Model (M-V-C) should be, I have 
settled on an extensible Model system designed as an intuitive implementation 
of persistent objects.  Also, pagination, some extra helpers and 
some tweaks here and there.  QM grows, but has not yet reached the 
point of optimisation.  More to follow in the !QM group...

This year's Rebol Library flash conference will be held on Monday, 
16th June.

The Eleventh ICFP Programming Contest, in a month:

< QM > Version 0.3.2

http://www.ross-gill.com/QM/


This release reworks the Controller engine, giving more flexibility 
in defining the Controller dialect.  The fruit of this is the 'protect 
directive that allows you to evaluate preconditions before executing 
an action.  More to follow in the !QM group...

Much simplifed way of contributing scripts to REBOL.org. And a better 
way of tagging them too:

I'm launching my new website. New design etc. and I'm adding a Blog. 
Not much content converted yet. But more to come soon.

The pre-release of Rebol for pros, Chapter 5 of Rebol - A programmer's 
guide is now available at http://www.lulu.com/content/2845102


It covers calling other programs and shared libraries, using MySQL 
from Rebol CGI scripts and how to manage source code with the free 
version of the Rebol pre-processor. All of these can be used from 
the latest free versions of Rebol.

The chapter also includes a really enthusiastic introduction to IOS 
and details of the data encryption features in Rebol/Command.
