World: r3wp

bye .. even if R3 were done today I couldn't use it.. I need cheyenne, 
I need SQLITE, PDF... :)  .. I watched the guido van rossum (python 
maker) keynote on pycon09 last week and he spent 20 minutes ranting 
that people should start using python 3000 slowly (the new - bigger 
changes version) .. in rebol at least community is anctious to start 
with R3 :)

Janko, yes, it's available in devbase.

(well maybe he spent whole talk, because I stopped watching at 20min... 
it was boring a little)

what is devbase (sory .. I am not totally updated) , is this public?

do you use chat?

I haven't already.. but I have the latest r3 on my desktop

ok, to get the protocol in a few steps: start r3, type "chat". type 
"more 3365"

do I need to NEW-USER ?

yes registration is open

I'm not sure. You should be able to work as guest.

just give a nick and a pass

but registration is free, as shadwolf says

*off-line* guest:>> more 3365
--- Note: select a message topic

(this is what I got)

What happens if you type " f "http.r" " ?

PeterWood:R3/GUI/General>> more 3365

 ** Script error: submit-of? does not allow none! for its fid argument

interesting. try "n"

PeterWood, are you logged in? Which platform?

I created a user and logined now.. it says it's fetching messages

Yes
Mac OS X

It works okay if you are at the top level

aha now it work .. but I don't have the cappability yet

(low-rank)

I see.

how can I increase my (page)rank :)

you can't. you need a higher ranked person to do that. I'll see what 
can be done.

ok, no hurry.. I really have to leave now anyway

you should be able to read other messages though

I will come by in the evening and try again.. otherwise in next days

I was going to paste the code to Janko in a private message but AltME 
can't handle Mac line endings. Perhaps somebody running on Winodws 
could post it to him.

Has anybody tried running a server port on Linux?

I've altered Janko's rank to 20, although I'm not sure it's enough 
yet.

just one more question ... does the async networking on R3 work as 
it was shown on wiki for a while (the old one had examples)

uh, it works now

you see the file?

it listed it in console.. can I save it somehow?

yes, "get 3365"

aha, thanks

I think ports have not changed for over a year, so examples and docs 
should be up to date.

PeterWood, chat still segfaults here on OSX, so I can't test the 
bug.

Henrik. Try re-starting Rebol and then use chat. I have found that 
chat only segfaults once a certain amount of memory has been used.

What version of Mac OS X are you running?

Leopard and it usually segfaults right after starting R3.

I'm going to try Instruments, just out of curiosity.

I'm not expecting a usable R3 for another year or more.  I am really 
busy workting my project in R2, as i suspect are many others.

Maybe once we have a usuable GUI wrapped around dev chat it might 
be easier to follow what is going on ... but it's a bit of a black 
box to me now.

I had assumed that since the VID+ was being worked on, that core 
was in great shape ... oh well.

Henrik. I only get the seg fault if I use a lot of memory or try 
to use a scheme before running chat.

I get a crash immediately. Do you start it from terminal or Finder?

hmm. Instruments runs R3, but doesn't open a console, so it isn't 
interactive.
