World: r3wp

I had a funny observation: You can edit rich-text with the DOC style 
due to a bug, by clicking over the pieces of text and start typing. 
It works nice and fast, although there is no cursor management, ways 
to move between different text styles with the keyboard or any font 
settings. But then rich-text editing should not be so far away.

i wonder if some great guys who help carl thought about Database 
access ? odbc? rebol native lib for mysql db2 oracle mssql etc....

thought about it, yes. who will do it and how it will be done? don't 
know. if anyone wants to, I'm sure Carl will approve.

ask again in another year ..

like we have "unless" for "if not", should we have "unempty?" for 
"not empty?" ?

I have 'something? for "not empty?"

thank you to henrik for those examples  of REBOL3 GUI ;-)  it seem 
to be faster than R2 and perhaps we could have some grid and db grid 
and others..........

something?: all [ not empty? blah found? blah ]

ita ha only sense as a native, should be pretty useful for GUIs

ita ha
 = "it make" .. 8)

who is the must skilled for this job ...................SoftInnov 
perhaps ????????????

dockimbel ??????

the same guy

don't see the point, if you want and SQL DB the you can  use any 
lib

and make routines

this solution is still cross platform ?

but if you want build an inside DB (like RIF) then you need other 
skills that just calling API

you can see how it's difficult to make efficent ch

... choices by following the TRETBASE thread

the major drawback is to find an efficient method to build indexed 
files (sorted data)

Rebol is definitly out for this type of job

for some project rebol can use a liittle cross platfrom db

actually, it's the case

but for insert R3 in some real compagny we need to access to all 
other db mssql etc....

but i think it's a shame that rebol doesn't deliver his own DB scheme

Claude all majors DB furnish api to do that , you just have to read 
documentation

i am agree

I think that DB support will be done via plug-ins. Plug-in is more 
formalised kind of DLL interface we have with R2. In fact, DLL interface 
will be probably done as a plug-in. We can then link to odbc for 
e.g. too ...

Steeve? DB scheme? Come on, guys, you must live in wonderland, no? 
So supporting sqlite, mysql, postgress, and others via ODBC is not 
enough?

ahah

for developpement and support R3 need more guys !!!!

but - to proceed in some unified system way, we would need Carl to 
return to Core development, after GUI is done. Without finalisation 
of main interfaces in R3, we still can't do much ...

Pekr, it's not me who made announces on RIF

on peut toujours rêver Claude

Steeve - but you know, what the situation with REBOL is like. So 
you either wait for RIF, or you use something even maybe more suited 
to the job - SQLite. Does everything need to be pure REBOL based?

oui

ye

yes Pekr, but for smallish project an inside DB would be enough

and i'm not waiting for RIF, i know Carl

i am like a kid who wait every day (is not a joke) an announcemet 
for R3 coming out ;-)  even if R3 is not fully finish !!!!

oh my... don't do that or you will do a nervous breakdown

like Graham for example, ahahaha

;-);-);-) near coma

(i must confess, i check rebol.net several times per day)

we are junkies ;-)

but i turned crazy long time ago

well , good night all of you ;-)

You layer together with the hens

(strange trad)

to bed with the chickens (better)
