World: r3wp

me -> my

ok, first off - regarding the documentation.  The wiki should be 
updated so that the search field on the wiki site works with REBOL 
commands.

I would like to type in the wiki search field a command such as "what" 
and get extensive help on that function.  That possible?

Or put a new search field in just for commands.

The wiki should be updated with a newer version of wikimedia - we 
didn't write it.

sure, update the wiki yourself Paul :-)

Yeah I understand that.

I'm not versed in the Wiki and in fact I don't like the design myself 
but that is just me.

The best place for that kind of search function is as parameters 
to the DOCS function in R3.

yeah that would be perfect Brian.

We have a similar function in R3 for errors already: WHY?

Yeah I noticed that one.

I had an error actually but it didn't return any info on it.  But 
did take me to the page on the wiki to tell me that it didn't have 
any info on it.  ;-)

If you don't read the docs and chat, it doesn't take long to notice 
the WHY? function :)

Paul, if you throw to much why?, your rank will be lowered in the 
chat by Brian

Hehe.  I won't be acting like I do here in this world in rebdev.

I didn't here until the development team pretty much moved to other 
mediums and this then became a playground.

Um, no, that won't happen. That is one of those abuse-of-power things 
I was talking about. If I didn't like people to disagree with me 
I wouldn't have given Steeve the URL to R3 to get him testing :)

How do I define a utype?

Also does R3 include REBCODE?

A1: You wait until we have that feature. A2: Not yet, not ever in 
a compatible way.

hmmmm. ok.

I see it has functions for rebcode.

perhaps we should prevent people to not enter in some headings because 
it must remain a lot of blood on the walls when I fought with Brian

Fighting with Brian is good for ya.  ;-)   It makes us wiser.

I agree. The results of those fights either let to bug reports, feature 
requests, or valuable documentation (object lessons).

If you want to get really angry you can post private chat right in 
the topics.

Yeah was looking at the chat but it is a bit cumbersome.  The web 
version looks more useful for reading.

why include other functions if they don't work? such as to-rebcode?

TAKE doesn't work properly yet either. It's an alpha.

load-gui doesn't work either.

Nor would the GUI if you *did* load it, which is why it is not yet 
included.

We need a new R3 dictionary with samples like the one we had back 
on IOS.

Remember my tirade earlier today about volunteering? :)

Heh, helps to know the commands.

yes Paul , it's an alpha, help us to add many improvements, documentation 
or tests if you have time to do

I'm not sure how much time I will have.

I don't know if the IOS developer server is still up as I haven't 
been on it in years.  But  if it is maybe someone can grab the dictionary 
script from there unless someone else already has it and then we 
can just populate it with documentations and examples.  If someone 
has it they can send it to me.

Nevermind as that probably wont run under R3 anyway.

The dictionary should be in the DocBase wiki.

Yeah we can put it there.

The info that is.

Thank You Oldes

Carl also built Community site upon my suggestions. Hopefully everything 
important is there. Still better than nothing :-) http://www.rebol.com/community.html

I like it :)

Brian - could you look at my #904 msg, if something like that could 
be possible in RebDev? :-)

Yes, but not the leading / version. Chat commands are parsed with 
block parsing.

What's wrong with following? (except the fact that we can't user 
/ as a start of path datatype, which complicates the request)

>> parse [/ /R3/GUI] [word! path!]
== false
>> parse [/ /R3/GUI] [word! path!]

No GUI yet, as I'm still busy with something else. I need to do a 
serious code audit before it's included. Many things are still up 
in the air.

wow, did I just download new R3 ?!? :)
