small correction: the test script link is http://development.saphirion.com/experimental/oneliner-prime-numbers.r

What version of Android is needed for R3droid.apk ?

(sorry, should be in ann-reply)......

Wow, just got back on AltME!  Deliriously happy :)

Works on my Huawei M865C :)

I noticed system/view exists...  Have you had any chance to explore 
the possibility of GUI?

Please put in your agenda the weekend of saturday the 26th and sunday 
the 27th of january. Then we will have the DevCon 2013 in De War 
'Place for Pioneers' in Amersfoort, the Netherlands. This year we 
will combine the Syllable Winter Conference with the DevCon, Conference 
for the REBOL Programming Language Family, as they have much overlap. 
Presentations will be done by Nenad Rakocevic and Kaj de Vos. We 
are open to other guest speakers and presentations? Entrance is free, 
but donations are very much appreciated. Keep an eye on this website:
http://devcon.esperconsultancy.nl/(will be updated soon)
and this Twitter-account:

It is easily reachable by airplane (Schiphol, Amsterdam Airport) 
and by international trains. 

It's an old matches factory marked 'Spullenmannen', which is now 
being used by artists.

DE WAR


DE WAR is a breeding ground for art, technology and sustainability 
in Amersfoort, and is host to  a wide range of activities. Since 
2002 the Spullenlab has been the headquarters of Spullenmannen, an 
artists\u2019 collective making theatre, installations, visual art, 
and purposeless contraptions. A  shared office space was set up in 
2006, with different working places, a meeting room, and other facilities 
shared by a number of cultural enterpreneurs. The OpenTOKO workshops 
started in 2008, as a series of \u2019open knowledge\u2019 workshops 
on the connection between art and technology. Since 2010, DE WAR 
has also been housing FabLab Amersfoort, TransitieLab, and Studium 
Generale Amersfoort.  Moreover, a performing space for small theatre 
productions has been set up in 2011.


DE WAR has been established in the old match factory on the river 
Eem.  The factory complex dating back in 1881 has, besides from other 
activities, operated as a production facility of the Dutch colour 
dye industry, and is also known by the name of its last owner, Warner 
Jenkinson. Nowadays owned by the municipality of Amersfoort,  the 
factory complex faces an uncertain future, either to be demolished 
or to be renovated. Besides DE WAR several other offices and ateliers 
are housed within the same factory complex.


DE WAR is initiative  of PLAN B, at the address KLEINE KOPPEL 40, 
3812 PH in Amersfoort,

I've published my port of the Red interpreter console to platforms 
other than Windows, with the ReadLine/LibHistory library:
https://github.com/Kaj-de-Vos/Red
To be demoed at above DevCon.

A pull request to mainline Red has been submitted:

https://github.com/dockimbel/Red/pull/371

I posted a short primer for CGI with current Rebol 3 releases as 
answer to a question on Stack Overflow:


http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14123618/how-to-write-a-hello-world-cgi-with-rebol-3


If you want to play with R3 and CGI but don't know how, that should 
get you started.

I've started a file common.red for common definitions for Red:
http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-common/dir?ci=tip

Notably, there's marshalling in there for program arguments.

ARGS-COUNT gives you the number of arguments, including the program 
file name, like system/args-count in Red/System.

ARGUMENTS gives a block of string arguments, excluding the program 
file name, or NONE, like ARGS in Boron.
ARGUMENT 0 gives the program file name, like argv[0] in C.

Doc, feel free to use any of it in Red under BSL

I've ported the do-sql example for SQLite from the Red/System binding 
to the Red binding:

http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-SQLite/dir?ci=40dba6332ea529dc&name=examples
To be demoed at above DevCon.

You can give arbitrary SQL instructions to an arbitrary SQLite database 
from the command line

It still uses a Red/System callback for processing result rows, so 
that's not done on the Red level yet. That's next

Everything around it is done by Red, such as processing the command 
line arguments, opening and closing the database, injecting the SQL 
and processing status reports

To be demoed at above DevCon

The Red binding uses the same string marshalling as the Red console, 
so the same limitations apply. Latin-1 only and string values of 
64 bytes or longer may not work

Robert : A gotcha appeared in your last post about the oneline-prime-numbers.r 
script the correct address should include as its filename the following 
: oneliner-prime-numbers.r instead of the submitted one. I then copy-pasted 
the content of the script in the console and here is what I got : 
97 89 ...   5 3  which is correct !  Thanks again !

Yes, sorry for the type.

I'm happy to announce a website for downloads of (unofficial) Rebol 
3 executables:

http://www.rebolsource.net/


Currently, binaries for Linux, OSX, and Win32 are created fully automatically, 
from Carl's latest R3 sources. So whenever Carl updates his Github 
repository, those binaries will be updated automatically (typically 
within ~10 minutes) as well.

I hope this makes it easier to partake in R3 development without 
going through the hassles of setting up a build environment first.

(Please reply/discuss in Ann-Reply.)

I'm happy to announce our next Android release. Cyphre did a great 
job and pushed the port further forward. Here are the highlights 
of the new release:

-added full file access
-added networking
-added console user input (ASK etc. works)
-improved threading (at the app level, not R3)
-misc small internal changes in the console code


With this it's possible to run R3 chat on your Android phone :-) 
Here is how to do it:

make-dir %/mnt/sdcard/r3/
change-dir %/mnt/sdcard/r3/
chat


The paths might be a bit different on your device. The trick is to 
use the /sdcard path and put everything below it.

The link is as always:

Again, thanks to all who made a donation for this project!

Fantastic - thank you!

All file and networking tests working for me so far :)

-> Ann-Reply :)

I made an extended version of the Red interpreter console that includes 
the SQLite binding, so you can use the binding from the interpreter.


This was made possible by all the fixes Doc has done in the past 
few weeks and enhancements to the interpreter.


I've made ready built binaries available in the test repository. 
They're in */Red/console-pro:
http://archives.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-test/dir?ci=tip

To be demoed at the DevCon:
http://devcon.esperconsultancy.nl

I've started a Red counterpart of the Red/System binding with the 
C library:
http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-C-library/dir?ci=tip


I'll implement C library bindings there as far as they're useful 
at the Red level. So far there's a simple CALL implementation.

There's a WAIT refinement, but like in R3, this simple CALL always 
waits, and there are no other refinements yet

I've extended the Red interpreter console with the ability to load 
and run a script file, given as an optional program argument. It 
also has CALL now, so you can run simple programs with the intepreter 
and script the operating system.


As before, ready built binaries are available in the test repository, 
in */Red/console-pro:
http://archives.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-test/dir?ci=tip

After executing a script, you still end up in the console, to help 
with debugging. To prevent this, end the script with QUIT

The OSX x86 binary on rebolsource.net has been updated and should 
now work on OSX 10.4+.

Direct link:
http://www.rebolsource.net/downloads/osx-x86/r3-ga6077e8

Thanks to Chris Ross-Gill, HostileFork and Peter Wood for reporting 
this issue.

I've implemented INPUT and GET-ENV in the C library binding for Red:
http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-C-library/dir?ci=tip

It should now be possible to do CGI programming with Red.

I've updated the console-pro interpreter:
http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-test/dir?ci=tip

The source for the extended console is here:

http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-common/dir?ci=tip&name=examples

Specially for Arnold, I've implemented NOW and RANDOM for Red:
http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-C-library/dir?ci=tip

I've updated the console-pro interpreter in */Red/:
http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-test/dir?ci=tip

The latest interpreter fixes from Doc are also in there

I've implemented all refinements for NOW here, except /precise:

http://www.rebol.com/r3/docs/functions/now.html

In addition, I've added /hour /minute and /second. Red has no date! 
and time! types yet, so they're returned as strings

It's pretty horrible what one has to do to hammer the chaotic C library 
API into a neat REBOL model

RANDOM has /seed. It only works on integers so far. As a bonus, random/seed/secure 
seeds the pseudo-random number generator with a clock value, so the 
start of the sequence is really random

now gives a string with date and time, but using  the refinements 
dont't give back a result.
