ok.
Graham

old builds have draw, newer do not
Steeve

But richtexts seem to work, as far i tested
Graham

on what build?
Steeve

I mean the robert's one
Graham

for your IRC client?
Steeve

[4713x4]
see !REBOL Host kit
it's not an IRC client
Shad made a wrong guess
It's only some demo styles
Graham

ok ...
Steeve
28-Aug-2010
[4718]
but maybe it will be a real GUI
Graham

[4719]
SGUI ?
Steeve
28-Aug-2010
[4720x2]
S for ?
oh !
Graham

Steeve ....
I guess it should be GUIdS since the noun follows in french
Steeve
28-Aug-2010

not bad :-)
Graham

GUIDuS

I found GuiMove but it''s already taken
it's sound like guimauve in french and it means marshmallow

I've created this function many times enough to think it should be 
standard:


; creates a string from a list of strings with human readable comma 
separation
string-list: func [blk /local out] [
	out: make string! 1000
	forall blk [
		append out form first blk

  unless tail? next blk [append out either tail? at blk 3 [" and "][", 
  "]]
	]
	out
]

string-list ["a" "b" "c"]
== "a, b and c"
feel free to optimize

Why is this R3?
Henrik

works in R2 as well. feel free to add it to R2/Forward.

What's the setting?
Henrik

[4734]
what setting?
Graham

[4735x2]
what input is causing you to create this output?
Are you creating sentences?
Henrik

[4737]
blocks of strings, usually created for dialogs or other human readable 
output
Graham

[4738x2]
I'd think that it is just something that you do :)
I don't do this .. but I have code that processes a whole sentence 
and grammar fixes it including the above.

I've built similar funcs, but not often. Maybe it could be part of 
a formatting module, and I would give it a different name.
The output format is specific enough, and the name generic enough, 
that I wouldn't make it a standard func as is. It is useful though.

Could someone please add an A105 version to R3 Curecode? Thanks!

Done. And bug#1643 marked as fixed in it..

Just reading new roadmap - http://www.rebol.com/roadmap.html... 
what I don't understand is all the fuss about R3+. From the very 
beginning, I don't like the idea of putting some usefull stuff into 
additional module. E.g. - why some usefull mezzanines or protocols 
be part of the plus package? What I fear is - anything, that is optional, 
will not be a standard. I can understand that we can't include 100 
protocols probably, but talking about + package, where the only protocol 
we have is http, and even that is not fully functional, is a bit 
preliminary :-)


Interesting note about R3 DB - what is R3 DB port? Is Rebin, RIF, 
finally coming? Or did we decide to select one DB, e.g. SQLite engine, 
and include it into R3?


As for tasking - "Experiment: how far does the current R3 multitasking 
base take us?" - no experiments, please :-) Tasking/IPC is the last 
missing stone before we can claim R3 being a beta - it needs solid 
work, and I expect 1-2 months, and the same kind of impact, as Unicode 
transition, or Extension, Callbacks had :-)

 - disagreed
(with both "the last" as well as "missing")
Graham

these are just opinions
There is no definition of what constitutes a R3 beta

Nevertheless, I do not doubt Pekr will be proven wrong.
...even without a definition

Pekr, what part of "optional" means "non-standard"? It just means 
that it isn't loaded and taking up resources if you don't need it.
It's a plus for a lot of platforms to be able to build on a minimal 
base. For instance, I would have loved /Base on WinCE.
