World: r4wp

Currently most of them work

I just update the http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=advanced-r3d.r
   R3D demo, may you test the models on your PCs and give me a feedback 
if it's all good? With off models I turned off backface culling and 
it can be hard for some pc... maybe...

just push "load OFF file" and test the models

I've added a build script to the above testing repository, to build 
all my Red examples in one go

I've added executables for all six current Red target platforms: 
Syllable, Linux, Linux-ARM, Android, Darwin (OS X) and MSDOS (Windows)

I need volunteers to test these examples on their platforms

For testing some of the bindings, here is information where to get 
the C, cURL and 0MQ libraries:

http://rebol.esperconsultancy.nl

For checking out the complete repository and simply keeping them 
up to date for new test versions:

http://rebol.esperconsultancy.nl/documentation/how-to-use-Fossil.html

I've updated the binaries for the latest Red fixes

To get a clue which binding/library an example program uses, look 
in build.r

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/REBOL_Programmingnow it's a good guide 
on Rebol: what do you think?

I have to finish to add all "reserved" words description. You may 
help me if you want... ;-)

You can use the following code to make word description entry in 
the wikibook:

I have put a script similar to the chess script on rebol org. It 
is a script to determine all possible moves in the international 
10x10 checkers game (dammen). It needs some improvement in how to 
represent the moves themselves, but the basics work. I'll post a 
board and simple board evaluating script soon. 
http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=dam1.r

(I need also to find out how exactly to make a package from all needed 
files)

I've updated the above test binaries for the Red 0.3.0 alpha 1 release. 
Please test

MaxV: I see you wrote: "ALIVE? is a logic of value: true" - I think 
that this needs a more thorough explanation, though.

>> source alive?
alive?: true

Is there anything else about ALIVE? ?

I've added Windows binaries for most dependency libraries to the 
above Red test program collection: cURL, SQLite, 0MQ, SDL and GTK 
and dependencies. With that, it becomes very easy to test them on 
Windows

I'm particularly interested in results for MSDOS/RedSystem/read-web-page 
and play-SDL-WAV. I haven't been able to use cURL to read a web page 
yet, and playing sample.wav appears in the Windows 7 mixer, but I 
haven't had audible sound yet

I've updated the test binaries for Red/System fix #279, fixing GTK 
window icon loading

I've cleaned up the Red bindings for the #enum passing bug that was 
fixed in Red/System 0.3.0. Most of the bindings need Red 0.3.0 now

Reposting Carl Read's: "For those wanting an email list again, note 
there's already one on Google Groups: groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/rebol"

I just finished the full Rebol disctionary on: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/REBOL_Programming/Dictionary
there you can find also the source of the functions. 

It's a public wiki, you can add examples, correct bugs, add topics: 
you are welcome!

Hmm, as I see it, you described R2. Now the question is whether it 
makes sense to add R3 description, eventually how.

Max did you start from R2's on-line dictionary?

it has a lot more than just the function's prototype and source.

it includes related,  examples and some usage text.

I made this: http://prezi.com/xyuhedfy0wmu/rebol/

what do you think?

It's public and you can copy and modify it

Excellent Max - well done - that is a really cool demo for beginners 
or those curious

After the mirror game and the chessboard interface, the Red compiler 
script and various cgi scripts and showing all how radio buttons 
work in VID, I can now introduce to you the application to play checkers 
(10x10 international, in dutch dammen). Not bad for a REBOL newbie 
right? Wait a moment with all of your nominations please, because:

There is a tiny issue left with the moving of the pieces when playing 
against the computer but it is minor compared to all other issues 
I have already fixed ;-)


You can download the zip file with the program here http://arnoldvanhofwegen.com/stuff/damscripts.zip

Program is started with do %damb.r and you can play after setting 
the color the computer has to play with on the panel you get when 
you click the top-left button. You can look under the hood and see 
the values the program gives the legal moves. You can put your own 
positions on the board and continue from that point.
Enjoy!

The minor issue is fixed, your nominations are welcome ;D

Thanks Ladislav - I use that script!

I updated my Fossil introduction for Syllable 0.6.7 and modified 
the example to be specifically for the Red test binaries, so it can 
now be used as a guide for getting the Red test programs:

http://rebol.esperconsultancy.nl/documentation/how-to-use-Fossil.html

MaxV, the Prezi way of presentation is cool indeed. Only problem 
for me to use it is that you need to be online when viewing. Been 
hoping this woul dbe possible using REBOL itself. Btw can you point 
me to the code of the example with the moving road?

Look here: http://www.rebol.net/demos/download.html

My game, Stunt Ace, has been released to iOS (iPhone, which also 
works on iPad).


Stunt Ace is a retro type game. REBOL was used in the development 
process to make a prototype and for the level editor. I also used 
the REBOL DRAW dialect to create the logo, icon and presentation 
graphics.


Stunt Ace can be found on Apple's App Store. The Android version 
can be found on Google Play.

Homepage: http://niclasen.name/stuntace.html

Stunt Ace was made using:
- Deluxe Paint on an Amiga
- GIMP
- Waldorf Pulse analogue synthesizer
- TimewARP 2600 analogue soft synth
- Roland A-90 keyboard
- A Mac
- A PC
- REBOL
- In-house software

Have fun!

Congrats John!  Is World part of your development process for iOs?

I've uploaded new script:

https://github.com/Oldes/rs/blob/master/projects-rswf/pack-assets/latest/pack-assets.r
which I'm using with this one:

https://github.com/Oldes/rs/blob/master/projects-rswf/form-timeline/latest/form-timeline.r

to pack assets (bitmaps and animations) for prototype of Adobe AIR 
framework I'm working on which can be seen here:
