World: r4wp

Cool, Max

Very cool Etsy addition Nick. I agree that this will in the very 
least cause some curiosity about Rebol. And once you try it...

Red test binaries: I will certainly have good use of them (at least 
for regression tests).

I thought so :-)

Carl is asking which Repo to use ... let's have some unity in response 
this time!

Carl seems to be on steroids last days :-) Wonder if he is going 
to be back to active development too at some point ....

Perhaps he's found the courage again to restart his dreams

@ MaxV : r3D is neat

all it needs is an event handler for the 3d view so that rotation 
is clamped to (ZX) / Y axis   and scrollwheel to scale (XYZ)   :-)

Kaj, I'm probably doing this wrong. All examples under MSDOS/Red 
fail with:

---------------------------
empty.exe - Entry Point Not Found
---------------------------

The procedure entry point wprintf_s could not be located in the dynamic 
link library MSVCRT.DLL. 
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

I think you've found an important bug, just before release. Thanks! 
:-)

Could you please enter it in the Red issue tracker?

Do the Red/System programs work?

Only those that work with console. The rest seem to fail, because 
I don't have the appropriate DLLs.

Henrik: what Windows platform were you using for that test?

All MSDOS/Red binaries run fine here (Windows 7 32-bit).

MSVCRT.DLL errors are often related to compiling in Debug mode or 
version mismatch in installed redistributables with requried ones.

Henrik, yes, for a number of the examples you need to install the 
corresponding libraries. I'm particularly interested in library names 
for examples that don't work yet

DocKimbel, windows XP 32 bit

Kaj, well, glut-triangle.exe responds with:

---------------------------
GLUT-triangle.exe - Unable To Locate Component
---------------------------

This application has failed to start because LIBGL.SO.1 was not found. 
Re-installing the application may fix this problem. 
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

LibGL is usually supplied by Mesa3D. Although after that, you probably 
need to install GLUT separately

This is actually an example by Andreas

---------------------------
OSM-GPS-Map-browser.exe - Unable To Locate Component
---------------------------

This application has failed to start because LIBGTHREAD-2.0-0.DLL 
was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. 
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

It's possible that you have some libraries already installed, but 
the library names or versions in Red are wrong

For most of the graphical example, you need to install GTK. GThread 
is a component from GLib, which is usually included in a GTK+ distribution

OSM-GPS-Map is an extra library on top of that

for the windows examples, should there be some indication of failure 
for something like do-sql.exe or GLUT-triangle.com?

when I execute these, I get no output

In process explorer, I see the process start, then exit

I would expect errors, as Henrik got

I don't have the required libs at this point so I'm expecting failure

Do you execute them from the prompt?

yes

Odd. In any case, those two need libraries, so you would have to 
install those first

was executing them from a console wrapping cmd.exe - there is a popup 
when executing directly

---------------------------
PeterPaint-SDL.exe - Unable To Locate Component
---------------------------

This application has failed to start because SDL.DLL was not found. 
Re-installing the application may fix this problem. 
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

Yes, please install SDL

AdrianS: since Vista, Windows is hiding some runtime errors from 
console, you can check in "Event Viewer" if you think a crash occured.

Sigh

Henrik: I'm installing an XP SP3 image to try to reproduce your issue.

ok, I'll stop posting errors now :-)

Please do if they're not about libraries you don't have :-)

I don't think I have any other types of errors.

Tested all examples now, only library missing errors.

Yes, that would be the first error. You can only really test it once 
the libraries are installed

the regular windows console doesn't block the output, so false alarm

Kaj how is the progress in testing on all platforms?

You tell me :-)

I ran just the three Red Samples on my Mac, that was enough?

What I saw, I liked.
