Anton: 27-Oct-2006 | Hmm.. can't be a simple as that. I think READ determines the file's host platform somehow and translates accordingly. | |
Gabriele: 3-Nov-2006 | in principle, there should be little difference. since write always creates a new file, and immediately closes the file port, they should basically be the same. I also assume that /append implies /direct in some way. | |
Maxim: 9-Nov-2006 | yeah... like .h file loading ;-) we can always dream ;-) | |
Maxim: 9-Nov-2006 | humm no I just want to read it. so that install can be setup by IT dept. instead of obsure and inconsistent user.r file | |
Anton: 25-Nov-2006 | Joe, I can't get it to work either. It looks like LAUNCH always just converts its VALUE argument to a file and then tries to do it. | |
Jerry: 27-Nov-2006 | I was processing a Chinese text file using REBOL. The text file was in the Big5 Encoding, which is the de facto encoding we use in Taiwan. A Big5 character needs two bytes, so I used strings whose length is 2 to present Big5 characters. Something weird happened. After a while, I realized that REBOL treated two different characters as they were the same character. Chinese-char1: to-string #{A4 68} ; Big5 Char for "Educated Person" Chinese-char2: to-string #{A4 48} ; Big5 Char for "Human" if Chinese-char1 = Chinese-char2 [ print "This cannot not be happening..." ] How would I fix my REBOL scrip? Thank you. | |
Rebolek: 28-Nov-2006 | Can somebody explain to me, how does FIND work in file! ? >> path: %/disk/drawer/ == %/disk/drawer/ >> file: %/disk/drawer/file == %/disk/drawer/file >> find/match file path == %file >> find/match file %/disk == %/drawer/file >> find/match file %/disk/ == %drawer/file >> find/match file %disk/ == none >> find/match file %drawer == none It seems to work only if the searched string stars on begining of file! | |
Gregg: 28-Nov-2006 | You can also use the API to get the current keyboard state, whether or not you trap the key yourself. And, yes, if we ever get system ports working under View, it will be nice; for file drops alone it would be great. | |

Gregg: 29-Nov-2006 | Hmmm, has anyone looked at my FILE-LIST script on REBOL.org? If so, would it make sense to add an option to sort the results, or an option to have extra data returned (e.g. attrs or date-time) along with the file names themselves? | |
Graham: 16-Dec-2006 | How about a /native refinement to return files in 'request-file to return files in the native file format? | |
Graham: 17-Dec-2006 | show-text field form any [ request-file/only/native copy "" ] | |
Anton: 17-Dec-2006 | >> form to-local-file any [%hello %""] == "hello" >> form to-local-file any [#[none] %""] == "" | |
Graham: 17-Dec-2006 | form any [ to-local-file request-file/only/native copy "" ] | |
Graham: 17-Dec-2006 | form any [ to-local-file request-file/only copy "" ] | |
Graham: 17-Dec-2006 | which errors if request-file returns none | |
Anton: 17-Dec-2006 | This doesn't: form to-local-file any [request-file/only %""] | |
Geomol: 3-Jan-2007 | To move a file, one solution is: write/binary <destination> read/binary <origin> delete <origin> If you leave out the delete, you've got a copying file routine. | |
BrianH: 3-Jan-2007 | If you just need to move a file within the same hard drive, there may be some tricks with renaming or calling external commands that will likely be faster. Be sure to check those out too. | |
Anton: 9-Jan-2007 | Given some data which I might load from a file: data: [ [code description] ["CC" "Crazy Cuts"] ["DD" "Dreadful Dingo"] ] I can process it this way: format: data/1 ; get the format block, which is known to be first use format [ foreach blk next data [ ; skip over the format block set format blk if code = "CC" [print description] ] ] with the disadvantage that I set a word ('FORMAT). I could put that in another USE context but then I would have yet another level of nesting in the code. (There is already one level of nesting more than I want.) What I would prefer to write is something like: USE-FOREACH (data/1) (blk) (next data) [ if code = "CC" [print description] ] Therefore, an implementation is called for. Any comments before I begin an implementation ? | |
Bo: 20-Jan-2007 | I have an interesting problem with FTP. I'm using FileZilla on my server and I get the following entry in the log file: | |
Bo: 20-Jan-2007 | But it seems the FTP server is working properly according to the log file. If it cannot retrieve the directory listing, it sends a 425 and then eventually disconnects. In any case, Rebol should never hang indefinitely even if the FTP server misbehaves. | |
Henrik: 22-Jan-2007 | is there a way to "trace" where you read or 'do'ed a file from? would be handy if you had a script that could tell whether it was run from a webserver or from a local disk | |
Bo: 22-Jan-2007 | It could be due to unusual filenames, but it doesn't always lock up on the same file. | |
Oldes: 22-Jan-2007 | If I setup my firewall to accept incomming connections, I got: Net-log: "150 Opening data channel for directory list." Net-log: "Closing listen port 3797" Net-log: "Closing data port 69.12.157.73 3797 62038" Net-log: [none ["226" "250"]] Net-log: "226 Transfer OK" Net-log: "Opening listen port 3798" Net-log: [["PORT" port/locals/active-check] "200"] Net-log: "200 Port command successful" Net-log: ["TYPE I" "200"] Net-log: "200 Type set to I" Net-log: [["RETR" port/target] ["150" "125"]] Net-log: "150 Opening data channel for file transfer."

Oldes: 22-Jan-2007 | what does it mean lock ups? That you cannot upload any file anymore? | |
Oldes: 22-Jan-2007 | If you backup so many files, you should open just one connection and comunicate with the server. Not to open and close connections for every file. | |
Bo: 22-Jan-2007 | But it doesn't seem to hang up while appending to an existing file. The only time I have seen it hang up is when Filezilla returns a 425 message. | |
Oldes: 22-Jan-2007 | as it douesn't recognize, that the file is already uploaded and with same or newer date | |
Chris: 29-Jan-2007 | The sandbox port I wrote may serve as an example, except that it wraps a file port and not TCP. I hope to put together an article on this (before ports are changed completely in R3 :) | |
Maxim: 8-Feb-2007 | a 10MB xml file loaded from the net and loaded with xml2rebxml took about 100mb of ram. the same file loaded in firefox took up 600mb of ram. I was pretty shocked ! | |
Anton: 11-Feb-2007 | quickly make a little example file which demonstrates the problem using a new console. | |
Henrik: 14-Feb-2007 | it's a file packing function. refinements are used to determine which files should be skipped and which files should be processed with other external functions | |
Robert: 19-Feb-2007 | Can this routine (http://www.rebol.net/article/0281.html) for copying large files be used to transfer a file over a network as well? | |
CharlesS: 19-Feb-2007 | Im iterating over a lines in a file , with this line in a foreach body | |
CharlesS: 19-Feb-2007 | oh hmm, im splitting by lines with this -> lines: parse (read to-file rejoin [ moduleName ".php" ]) "^/" , but it seems to be splitting by spaces ? | |
Robert: 25-Feb-2007 | Is there a way to find out if a loaded file is encrypted with CLOAK? | |
Sunanda: 2-Mar-2007 | Do you mean using it to generate file names that will be acceptable on any platform that REBOL runs on? If so, I don't know, but I wouldn't take the risk..... ....I use checksum/secure and remove #{} part -- gets me a file name that is just letters (a-f) and digits. | |
Henrik: 3-Mar-2007 | gabriele, so you can rename a file while it runs? | |
Gabriele: 3-Mar-2007 | nren.exe downloads a new file, update.exe; it runs it; update.exe overwrites nren.exe with itself, then runs it; nren.exe deletes update.exe | |

BrianH: 6-Apr-2007 | According to MS's blogs, the only way to enable Exchange's server-side junk mail folders is to do so through Outlook Web Access on a per-user basis. The only way they suggest to do so for all users is to post: cmd=options junkemailstate=1 cmd=savejunkemailrule to every user, logging in as a domain administrator. They provide a 100+ line VBScript to do this for a list of names in a file. When that failed, I figured that I could do the same in 1 or 2 lines of REBOL, and I was correct: I get the same exact failure the VBScript gets in 1 line of REBOL :( | |
Brock: 4-May-2007 | Anton, the last options seems to auto-detect if the file is created and appends if it created, is that true? | |
Terry: 12-May-2007 | The rse-ids.r file seems what Im looking for .. need to have a play. | |
Terry: 12-May-2007 | Im tryin real hard to get my simple data into a Rebol hash table, or blocks.. whatever.. but it seems like traditional Relational DB is the way to go.. even used only as a flat file DB :( | |
Terry: 12-May-2007 | if everytime you do a 'write' you need to sort 400mb file.. i would say yeah | |
Louis: 7-Jun-2007 | Good progress, then stuck again. I can get one file transferred, but I don't know how to transfer the following files. This is the server (put it in an empty folder): rebol [] print ["This program RECEIVES files sent by send-files-tcp." newline] port-num: request-text/title/default "Port Number: " "2006" url: to-url rejoin ["tcp://:" port-num] received-file: copy first open/binary url write %file-names decompress received-file files: load %file-names foreach file files [ received-file: copy url ;<======== HOW DO I FEED IN THE NEXT FILE? write/binary file received-file print ["Successfully received file: " file] ] ask "The files transfer is complete. Press <Enter> to close." | |
Louis: 7-Jun-2007 | This is the client; put it in the folder containing the files you want to send. rebol [] ip: request-text/title/default "IP Address: " "localhost" port-num: request-text/title/default "Port Number: " "2006" url: to-url rejoin ["tcp://" ip ":" port-num] system/options/binary-base: 64 ; best binary encoding print ["This program SENDS all files in its folder to receive-files-tcp." newline] print "NOTE: receive-files-tcp must be running on the remote" print ["computer before starting this program." newline] files: read %. ; Note that 'files is a block of file names. save %file-names files server: open url insert server compress as-binary read/binary %file-names ;send file names file-block: [] foreach file files [ if not find file "/" [insert file-block file] ;remove folders ] files: file-block foreach file files [ insert server compress as-binary read/binary file print ["Successfully sent file: " file] ] close server ask [newline "The files transfer is complete. Press <Enter> to close."] | |
Louis: 7-Jun-2007 | Start the server first, then the client, and file transfer should be automatic. | |
Geomol: 7-Jun-2007 | Louis, I think, your problem is, that you only operate with one port. When you define a listen port in REBOL, you receive a port from that. This new port can be used to receive the file. Something like: listen-port: open/lines join tcp://: port-num wait listen-port talk-port: first listen-port file: first talk-port close talk-port wait listen-port ... (I haven't tested this code. It's free from a similar program, I made in the past.) | |
Geomol: 7-Jun-2007 | server example: listen-port: open/lines tcp://:8080 wait listen-port p: first listen-port file: load first p close p write/binary %file.r debase first file close listen-port client example: p: open/lines tcp://127.0.0.1:8080 insert p remold [enbase read/binary %hokus-pokus.r] close p | |
btiffin: 10-Jun-2007 | How many rebols have written language localization routines? I'm toggling back and forth between external heaps and in-code strings I've got a RebGUI widget... lang-text {en "This is the english" fr "C'est francais" it "Don't know any italian"} meaning a translator will have to get dirty in code edits (or send to coder) or use text (lang "SomekindaKey") where lang is some func that having read some file, selects the string key by lang type... lang-type being buried somewhere in locale* How often is a REBOL translator a non-programmer? I find external text to be a pain when coding. But...it lets non-coders help with translations. In particular, I only have about 10 or so screens that could be translated. Ashley's builtin localization nicely handles all the GUI stuff. I'm leaning toward in-code strings. | |
Gabriele: 11-Jun-2007 | and the preprocessor can create a nice .catalog file for you | |
Oldes: 12-Jun-2007 | I mean rebol-file from such a url | |
Oldes: 13-Jun-2007 | yes... that's what I wanted.. especially to make the local file secure as well... (so converting url to local file does not leave the send-box:) | |
Gregg: 5-Jul-2007 | I thought I had a list somewhere, but can't find it. You probably already have all these. files: file-modes copy-modes net ports: network-modes interfaces ports: port-modes | |
Sunanda: 5-Jul-2007 | Thanks Gregg -- I was looking for the definite list of file modes: world-write etc. A bit of extra Googling got me to here: http://www.rebol.com/docs/core25.html#sect1.1. It would have been easier with some SEO on the .com and .net sites. | |

Pekr: 7-Jul-2007 | guys, do you have recursive directory read function? Simply put - what I need for our kiosk is: - script running in the background, window-less - script checks for new drive to appear periodically - then it reads specific directory, e.g. %/e/kiosk-update - then it reads files, and stores them to target dir, not carring about adding new dir/file, simply overwriting it It is kind of one-sided sync :-) I can't find anything usefull on rebol.org .... | |
Gabriele: 7-Jul-2007 | foreach file read dir [do-something-with dir/:file] | |
Gabriele: 7-Jul-2007 | >> print-dir: func [dir] [foreach file read dir [print dir/:file]] >> print-dir %public/www.rebol.com/ public/www.rebol.com/index.r public/www.rebol.com/docs/ public/www.rebol.com/bay.jpg public/www.rebol.com/view/ public/www.rebol.com/downloads/ >> print-dir %/ /c/ /d/ /e/ /f/ /g/ /h/ /z/ | |
Gregg: 7-Jul-2007 | Petr, my file-list stuff should be on REBOL.org. | |
Gabriele: 8-Jul-2007 | Petr, I'm not sure what you want. Obviously %c/ is a dir, and obviously it is at the root, so you have to access it as %/c/. This is called platform independent file paths. It's the same for all platforms. | |
Pekr: 10-Jul-2007 | 'attempt seems not to be able to catch file reading error. What am I doing wrong? Should I use if not error? try [] instead? | |
Rebolek: 10-Jul-2007 | What do you mean Pekr, it seems OK to me: >> attempt [read %no-file] == none | |
Pekr: 10-Jul-2007 | Rebolek - well, try to attempt [data: read/binary %some-larger-file] .... unplug your usb flash when file is being read .... | |
Louis: 10-Jul-2007 | Does anyone remember the command for converting a binary file to a string so it can be sent by email? | |
Louis: 10-Jul-2007 | I'm wanting to send a bunch of huge files to my son. I used this command awhile back to convert the files to text, then used compress to greatly shrink their size. Unfortunately I accidentally erased the source file for my script, and now can't remember the name of the command. | |
Graham: 10-Jul-2007 | compress creates a binary file | |
Louis: 10-Jul-2007 | What I want to do in convert a binary file to a string. | |
Graham: 10-Jul-2007 | http://www.rebol.net/cookbook/recipes/0026.html This recipe says that a binary file is being sent. I wonder how this works because the content type is url encoded, but there is not url encode function as a mezzanine by default. | |
Louis: 31-Aug-2007 | From section 11.12 of the Core users manual: inp: open/binary/direct ftp://ftp.site.com/big-file.bmp out: open/binary/new/direct %big-file.bmp buf-size: 200000 buffer: make binary! buf-size + 2 while [not zero? size: read-io inp buffer buf-size][ write-io out buffer size ;<================<<< Where did size come from; this is incorrect, no? total: total + size print ["transferred:" total] ] | |
Louis: 31-Aug-2007 | Attention whoever is in charge of documentation. Section 11.12 of the Core Users Manual give an example that will not work. A clear buffer statement is needed after the write-io line, and the ports need to be closed after sending each file. | |
james_nak: 1-Oct-2007 | I was loading a file, one which contained a block of make object! and the other with a single make object! I noticed that I could do a "reduce" on the block and get the expected results of having a block of objects but I had to use "do" on the single object instead of reduce. What is the difference between do and reduce? | |
Gregg: 2-Oct-2007 | DO returns the last value in the block it DOes, but both evaluate, so I'm not sure what the exact data looks like that you're loading, or how you're loading it. LOAD can behave differently, based on file contents; returning a block or not. | |
btiffin: 25-Oct-2007 | Rebol.org exif-image.r (uses exif-core.r) and has a jpeg-size function. Didn't read enough to see if it loads the whole file before it looks for the size fieldsm but I don't think Piotr's routines requires a load. | |
Steeve: 25-Oct-2007 | it's just a proof of concept, it's not usable as-is for an open/seek file mode | |
Steeve: 25-Oct-2007 | made an async parser (not fully tested - some problems may occur when the parser go back in the stream ) but the concept works : when the parser encouter a skip command, the data are not readed from the file but the offset is modified. | |

amacleod: 29-Nov-2007 | But I can not combine them as I did with using windows file path notation | |
Oldes: 29-Nov-2007 | >> to-rebol-file "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 6.0\Acrobat\acrobat.exe" == %/C/Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 6.0/Acrobat/acrobat.exe | |
BrianH: 29-Nov-2007 | amacleod, try this: call [%"/C/Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 6.0/Acrobat/acrobat.exe" %"/C/Program Files/PDFS/file.pdf"] | |
BrianH: 29-Nov-2007 | CALL will do the to-local-file translation for any REBOL files it is passed (even in that block above, though not in nested blocks), and even wrap the filenames in quotes just in case they have spaces in them. | |
Rod: 5-Dec-2007 | Any binary parse wizards ever tried to tackle the on disk file format that postgresql uses to store row data? I'm looking through the docs trying to get a handle on how tough it is. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/storage.html and http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/storage-page-layout.html give a fairly detailed starting place, plus the source of course but my C is so rusty I think reviewing the raw data is going to be easier. We are trying to recover some data that was deleted (marked for) by accident. We basically need to find the serial key value and associate it with a text value for each row so we can rebuild the table and not lose the relationships that key off that serial numeric value in other tables. There are some good examples of binary parsing in the rebol.org script library so I know rebol can help write out a text version of the two values if we can get a handle on the structures involved. I'm open to suggestions or advice, this is not critical but would be a nice win to recover the key data. | |
Oldes: 6-Dec-2007 | here is a basic... http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/pgsql-db.rthis reads the postrge's file per pages... but I'm not sure what to do with the data inside and have to do something else now | |
BrianH: 14-Dec-2007 | system/script/path gets the directory of the script, and you can put the name of the script in its header with the File field. | |
BrianH: 14-Dec-2007 | If we set b's File field to %b in its header, we can get that value for relaunching or whatever. | |
Henrik: 8-Jan-2008 | anyone know of a function to calculate the relative path between two branches in a file system? | |
amacleod: 11-Jan-2008 | I want to sync some files on a server. what is the usual method? This file will be a rebol script so I thought placing a "version:" in the rebol header would be logical. I tried to "load/header" but I get the whole script and its no evaluated so I can not just get the version value. |
