World: r3wp

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 ?!? :)

Pekr definately a bug it looks like as any-type! doesn't work either:

>> parse [/ /R3/Blah/] [any-type! path!]
== false

Please submit it Pekr to curecode.

That doesn't work in 2.7.6 either.

You can submit it yourself. It was matched as a word!, so I can see 
no problem with that :-)

matched as a word?

>> parse [/r3/blah][any-type!]
== false

How are you seeing it as a match for word?

We will need to know that cause any-type! doesn't match.

I'm thinking we need an any-path function.

or type rather.

Paul, it returns false, because they are two separate refinements.

>> parse [/b/a] [2 any-type!]
== true

Ahhhh.  I went the path route.

So with parse we should always think in terms of refinements instead 
of path.

only if the leading char is not a /.

Gotcha.

whoops, only if the leading char IS a /.

right, I understand.

I'm curious how Pekr, got word! do match though.

Paul - as easy as parse [ / ] [word!] ? :-)

line continuation doesn't work in the r3 console?

there are some limitations compared to the r2 console.

an open [ doesn't continue to next line? - just checking

yes, correct. you can't paste code in the console.

thx

i just tried to download the new r3alpha.

my NOD32-antivirus guard identified it as a variant of Win32/Adware.Antivirus2008

:-)

that' s curious.
I can download with firefox without problems.
but with seamonkey it's no longer available.

I know of no language that has this!
