World: r3wp

So - Steeve - are you going to submit vector enhancement proposals 
to CureCode?

That's why it will likely be replacing RAMBO too.

Steeve, if you are worried about your English the reviewers can clean 
that up in your tickets, with your permission.

maybe we could already notice Carl about coming tickets in Chat? 
Maybe he has some ideas for vectors too?

R3 chat heading #1318 is the place to be having this discussion.

Pekr, i'm not writing fluently enough, could you write the proposal 
instead ?

connected/disconnected/connected... hard to follow you guys

Well, I can write anything, it is just that in order to properly 
specify such stuff, you have to understand the topic, which is not 
my case. Maybe you could write it down to text file off-line, and 
once connected send it over the email to someone here, who would 
then put it in CureCode ...

oh come on !!! i'm just asking for scalar math operations, like it 
works on tuples and pairs

It's not a big deal. Steeve can post to Curecode and request for 
a clean up.

I think I get what Steeve is requesting. If he doesn't get it submitted 
by tomorrow, I'll have a go at writing it up.

No time for that today though.

I posted question to Carl in #1318

Hm, trying to connect to FTP from my virtual XP kills my router. 
I have to find other way to upload that vector document from r3-alpha...

http://krutek.info/vector-bugs.html

This does NOT reflect a51 changes. New version probably during weekend.

WAV/AIFF to vector - http://krutek.info/wav.r

R3 drum synth - http://krutek.info/drumsyn.r

note that the code is from Oct 2007 and probably won't work in current 
alpha.

Sweet. Post those links in R3 chat #1318 - Carl is there now.

I'd like to reflect A51 changes first.

Post the link now, make the changes later. Carl is there talking 
about vectors *now*.

you want me to understand R3 chat that I never used in 5mins? ;)

I'll post the links and say they are from you. Seriously, participate 
:)

I'm trying, it should be there soon :)

Is this OK?

Thanks, it's not needed, I figured how to post :)

I can post if it is.

Posted.

Seen :)

So actually, vectors are only for storing index purpose (to save 
memory).
Because Carl has only that need.
Hum...
He could use binary series instead, if it's his only one need.

Vectors without maths are only binary streams with less capabilties.

i use bniaries to store large index since several years with R2

lol

Brian, no Big endian, no little endian, it's a new format: little 
byte

Steeve, don't take an example as being the sole use.

How do I fix this:

Couldnt get a file discriptor referring to the console.

I'm using Ubuntu Linux 8.10

When does that happen? Are you trying to launch rebol?

Anton, after launching R3, when I type "docs"

That should open a browser window, which may not work under Linux 
yet.

Henrik, too bad.  I hope that changes soon.

What happens if you type: browse http://www.google.com?

Command not found.

Interesting. Curecode reports a very different issue in ticket 710.

If I gave Firefox the alias of "browse"  would that solve this problem?

Wait a minute: Are you typing the browse command in R3 or in the 
shell? You must type it in R3.

In the shell.  In R3 I get the error mentioned above.

It won't help in the shell, so it's a BROWSE bug.

Louis: You can redefine browse at R3
browse: funct [ url ][ print ["Can't open "  url]]

So when you write docs o bugs command you'll see the url and can 
copy and paste to Firefox or Opera

Louis: Better solution
browse: funct [ url ] [ call reform [ "x-www-browser" url ]]

And browse works, and all commnads based on browse ( docs, bug, changes 
) too

Is anyone else following the Rebol3 blog using the Google Reader? 
 Its the only blog that i follow in which the text is poorly formatted. 
 Basically the entries appear as one big paragraph., and is hard 
to follow as a result
