World: r3wp

Press release: www.rebol.com/news/rt5330.html

Feel free to send it to your favorite publication or zine. If someone 
could coordinate that, it would be great. I'm leaving on a trip, 
and will not have the chance to beat on the press about it. Thanks.

finally got an editor with find/replace/plugins working (at least 
for me ;) http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=install-edit-tools.r

NicomDoc version 1.0 is released here: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/nicomdoc/

Try this application to test Webservices: to spy and test HTTP protocols, 
or to test a site (client or server part): go at http://dev.fr/view.php?sid=164

Spy/simulator of protocols based on HTTP protocols can work manually 
(graphic interface) or automatically (Rebol scripts)

OS X port of REBOL/View resumes. If you have interest in helping 
test with OS X, please contact me.  This is still very "rough".

OS X note is: http://www.rebol.net/article/0156.html

This world is going down for a few minutes while we relocate it to 
a different (and faster) server.  Sorry about that.  Hope to have 
it back up again soon.

REBOL3 world back up.

Moving IOS servers.

rebol.net DNS updated to redirect IOS servers

http://www.devx.com/opensource/Article/27969Part 2 of the Nano-Sheets 
article is published, I did not get notification till now.  Gregg 
and my co-authorship

http://www.devx.com/opensource/Article/27969/0/page/5at bottom of 
page, there is a javascript (devX) did that which is "Major Benefits 
of REBOL"

I've updated my two years old Texture Studio (now TextureX) to work 
under new View betas, you can try it - do http://krutek.info/rebol/texturex.r

Pre-alpha preview relase of a somewhat skinnable menu system to be 
found at http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=menu-system-demo.r

Full mouse and keyboard support, multi selection of menu items and 
exspecially easy VID-like menu set-up dialect and menu handling functions. 
Other important things (not to many) are missing, but I'd really 
appreciate early comments on that, since still some design decisions 
have to be made.

The menu system starts to get useful, all the basic features now 
work. I've split the actual menu script from it's demo and mainly 
improved keyboard support and styling method, so it's already usable, 
even though there will be changes to the setup dialect and accessor 
function signatures.

Anamonitor porti to 1.3, to test it: http://www.rebol.it/~romano/anamonitor300.r

VID compatible menu system available in early Beta now. Links as 
above to rebol.org.

(I should drop that "system" and rather say "menus" instead :-)

What's the menu system do ?  Moving to ann-reply

JFYI: In case your trying out the menu demo, just make sure that 
both files menu-system-demo.r and menu-system.r are the same version 
number.

Graham, Brock and Sunanda pointed me to have posted a wrong URL pointing 
to old versions of the files.
So here are the working ones:


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

 http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=menu-system-demo.r


These really should point to the most recent files in version 0.1.8 
now. Sorry, Graham and Brock (and potentially others, too) for the 
confusion I caused.

Next version is 0.2.0 and features an experimental SLIDER-ITEM in 
menus. A bit of a proof of concept, but fun stuff. To run the demo, 
do the link below.

wikiDOC 2005-06-16 (doc parser similar to dokuwiki) released 
http://rowery.olsztyn.pl/narg/rebol/wikiDoc/
no changelog at this time

An important note to think about:
http://www.rebol.net/article/0177.html

This is an example of what broke tictactoe.r in 1.3.0.

BTW, new tests posted in Viewtop REBOL/tests dir.

http://www.colellachiara.com/devcon05/

I just updated the DevCon web site.

I would like your permission to publish some of the groups here on 
R3 to the web site. See:
http://www.rebol.net/article/0183.html


The only groups that will be published will be those that have descriptions 
that contain the string [web-public].


If I do not hear any objections (post them to "Carl Only" group), 
I will fire up the scripts and get this started.

REBOL3 World Messages (for a few groups) are now on the web:
www.rebol.net/altweb/rebol3

I only published a few for testing -- feel free to publish others. 
 However, you cannot publish a private group.

Add [web-public] to the group discription to publish it. BTW, the 
web updates every 5 mins currently.

I designed a drive scrubbing script using Rebol Encap to remove all 
traces of files from your media, including hard drives, based off 
the DOD 5220.22 specifications for secure data removal.

You can download a copy from here:  http://www.sonic.net/~amicom/bin/clean-drive.exe

The only thing I ask is that if you use it and find a data recovery 
utility that can recover any of the data, please let me know.  I'd 
like to know what parameters you used to clean the drive, what utility 
you used to recover the data, and the condition of the recovered 
data.

I'm looking forward to encap based off View1.3 now, as I had to make 
some modifications to make it work with my older version of Encap.

Be aware, if you have a lot of free space on the media (i.e. dozens 
of gigabytes), it could take quite some time to complete.

The way it works is it overwrites all the free space on the disk 
with different binary patterns.  It will not affect your active files, 
except possibly if there is a problem with the directory structure 
of your filesystem.  Therefore, it is suggested to run Scandisk or 
Chkdsk to correct any directory structure problems first.


Obviously, this program is written to run on Windows and will not 
work on other operating systems at this time.

For anyone reading this on AltWeb, please email me at [LTC-:-sonic-:-net] 
with your findings.  Thanks!

Cool.

I wrote the program totally pro bono for a client who wants to donate 
a computer that had sensitive information on it to an underpriviledged 
school child, but I want to make sure the data is totally unrecoverable.

sorry

Bo, see if Steve Gibson will do a test for you. http://grc.com.
