You lost some possible dynamism by making this move. The C should 
be fast enough to calculate it on demand.

Anton - how's that your following demo is decently fast? Is it completly 
different technique?

heh, fun! Makes me think of Out Run: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out_Run

Yes, in that one I used AGG to scale and composite a relatively low 
number of frames, zoomed to different distances.

looks nicely smooth, and fast. Almost screams for addition of small 
car and doing some simple game upon it :-)

Yes, I was thinking of the techniques used in games like Out Run 
while I making it.

Reminds me also of Lotus Turbo Esprit (Amiga)

Pekr, on my old machine, I was hitting the limits of detail I could 
put in without reducing the framerate too much. I had to tweak it 
a lot to keep it looking fast and detailed enough. It was difficult.
Yes, Lotus Turbo Esprit I played a lot.

I've nearly ported tunel.r to C. I've got some expanding circles. 
Time for sleep...

waiting to see C and Rebol working together :)

Well, I finished port to C on linux today. But you're on windows, 
aren't you? You'll have to wait while I port to windows.
I'm looking into TCC.
TCC doesn't look good to me. It seems the project is moving slowly, 
and there was infighting about the version control system being used.
Tiny C Compiler (TCC).

I've installed an older version of TCC and tried compiling a simple 
example program, but it failed to compile, and the error messages 
led back to the above-mentioned problems, where patches to fix the 
compiler can be found in a non-main maintainer's forked repository, 
which is no longer supported by him.
Thus, I will try PCC next and then Clang/LLVM (as also mentioned 
by BrianH).
They both look very promising.

Hi. Is there a way to call a method (an object function) programmaticaly 
? ie supposed I've got a Car object with a function "drive-to" inside. 
Now, I've got a string "action" equal  to "drive-to". I want to do 
Car/action but that does not work (I can understand why), but is 
there any workaround ?

>> c: context [v: 1 f: does [print v]]
>> do in c 'f
1
>> do in c to-word "f"
1
>> c/('f)
1
>> s: "f" c/(to-word s)
1

LLVM - isn't it just virtual machine?

Oldes: sorry, it was diner time for me: thank you !
Oldes: can you explain the last one ? It's sort of voodoo to me.

The smallest LLVM binaries download is 14MB? Ouch :-)

use "action" instead of 's.. the function name is word so you have 
to use word to access it.
I'm not sure what you want to do.. maybe there is some better method 
then using objects.

Oldes: ok, that's very clear and it works fine for me. (and no, I 
really need to use thoses objects).
Oldes

You can also use shortcut for the method of the object:
>> c: context [v: 1 f: func[i] [print v: v + i]]
>> ff: get in c 'f
>> ff 2
3
>> ff 2

(I never used such a code before:)

Nice, really: so many ways to do this!

IN is a nice way to tell whether a specific word exists in an object:

if in word 'foo ['bar]

Henrik: yes, in seems really helpful.
I just managed to get my new LaTeX backend working for my markup 
engine.
Here's the HTML output: http://kib2.free.fr/REBOL/index.html
And the PDF (from LaTeX): http://kib2.free.fr/REBOL/index.pdf
Now, I have to work on lists full time :)

@Anton: I work on Linux and win... :)

So if you have something usefull I would be glad to test it with 
tunnel script ...
Currently making c64 version of tunnel mapper :)

Can't upload to my website at the moment for some reason, so I'll 
just post it to Vladimir privately for the moment, and try again 
later.

hi i would like to give you a example i am trying to do of a CRUD 
application
here it is http://users.skynet.be/fc078613/client/client.rip
you mus just de-rip the file with rebol
do client.rip
that create a folder and you must  execute the script with rebol 
START.R
i use rebGui 118 and rebDB203 to do it
i would like to improve my how to !-)
give me some advice
