that captcha password doesn't work for me because characters are 
not fixed width I assume
I copy/pasted it do text editor and was able to login. The code for 
GTK looks very nice

Right, you need to login anonymously. Just click on "anonymous login", 
then "Fill out captcha", then "Login".

(the captcha isn't readable in Chrome because fonts aren't fixed 
width)

I am using Chrome 14 on Win7 and have no issue reading the captcha.

Janko, there's a button that will fill out the CAPTCHA for you
I've added a quick-start SQLite example
Added a WAV player example to the SDL binding
I believe I have now bound the audio part of SDL 1.2 completely
There are sample WAV files, and BMP files for PeterPaint, in the 
SDL documentation

Since RED will support concurrency, I guess it would be suited for 
flow based programming?  http://www.jpaulmorrison.com/graphicsstuff/DrawFBP.jnlp

Probably, but not more than any other language, unless an adequat 
dialect or API is provided.

Max did a FBP implementation in R2 but what was missing was the multithreading.

Implemented the SQLite type system and stepwise query processing
Values can now be extracted with optimal efficiency and control
Implemented binding
Precompiled SQL statements can now be bound and rebound to external 
parameters
The SQLite engine has many similarities to REBOL, so I'm trying to 
express that in the identifier naming

How fast is Red currently?
Kaj

[3507]
I don't know if anyone has tested it, but Red/System should approach 
the speed of C. So that would be somewhere around the speed of C++ 
and such somewhat higher level languages

Kaj,   I have just started to look at CURL for NTLM.   Is it just 
grab the NTLM value from the headers and pass it with CURL as with 
HTTP-Auth?  Has anyone / everyone done this already?
Kaj
28-Sep-2011
[3509]
Hm, I haven't done anything with NTLM. I'll have a look at the docs

I appreciate it. I will try a few attempts when running behind the 
firewall.  I want to put together a simple regression package for 
a web site using CURL and REBOL and/or RED.

You need to tell cURL that you want NTLM, but after that it seems 
to be fully automatic
Have a look here at a third, under Passwords and HTTP Authentication:
http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-tutorial.html
The Red binding doesn't provide the #defines yet to configure that, 
but they're easy to add
The only requirement for NTLM seems to be that your cURL is built 
with SSL support:
http://curl.haxx.se/docs/features.html
Kaj

I've added defines for authentication methods to the cURL binding 
that you can use with the curl-set function to configure NTLM

Implemented horizontal and vertical box layouts in the GTK binding
Added a widgets overview to the examples
Here's the current one:
gtk-view window [
	gtk-position-center
	"Widgets Overview"
	icon "Red-48x48.png"
	vbox [
		label "Vertical box"
		fixed [
			label "Fixed layout"
			5 25  button [50 25  "Quit" :gtk-quit]
		]
		hbox [
			label "Horizontal box"
			button ["Fill"] yes
			button "Expand"
			button ["Fixed"] no
		]
		vbox [
			label "Vertical box"
			button ["Fill"] yes
			button "Expand"
			button ["Fixed"] no
		] yes
	]
]

Works fine on Win7. What are the yes/no keywords for?
Kaj

I'm about to define names for them. :-) They were the most practical 
way to construct a dialect that results in proper settings for filling 
or fixating a box cell
Did you resize the window? Then the working becomes clear
Not many floats are used in GTK, but I need them for layout alignment
Dockimbel
11-Oct-2011
[3534]
Ok, I see now what they are used for. :-) Are the extra brackets 
around some button titles a special convention you're using?

Hmm, no floats in Red/System will have to come anyway, no? :-)
eh, minus "no" in above sentence :-)
Kaj

Normally a button needs more than one parameter, so it would always 
have brackets. But here they're only used as examples, so they only 
have a display text and the brackets can be left out
