| 729 | Carl | DO NOT discuss this R2 topic here. If someone can post a note in the proper group for discussion, I'll answer questions there. | 28-Dec-09 20:22 |
| 728 | Carl | However, if we can manage to get a new R2 out, then I suggest we start scheduling regular monthly releases, if only just to fix a few bugs or for BrianH and other pending enhancements. | 28-Dec-09 20:20 |
| 727 | Carl | We need to update R2, however, I do not want to make this a complicated, time consuming release... because I do not have extra time (between R3 and Website changes.) The top goals are to remove the restrictions on the special features in View, and also to add SSL, if at all possible in a short period of time. The goal IS NOT to fix every little bug... because that would delay the release for a year... or more. | 28-Dec-09 20:19 |
| 726 | Graham | Did altme eat the message? | 28-Dec-09 20:19 |
| 725 | Carl | R2 update has been scheduled - read the following message carefully. | 28-Dec-09 20:16 |
| 724 | Maxim | I just released what I think is very the first R3 specific script on rebol.org :-) A BNF grammar converter for rebol: http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=bnf-compiler.r Fully documented within the source (more than 4kb of text). It has a few little cool grammar processing features and some interesting things it *can't* do. | 14-Dec-09 0:38 |
| 723 | Chris | An error, etc? I've been using it with 2.100.94.2.5 | 19-Nov-09 1:26 |
| 722 | Chris | Anything in particular? | 19-Nov-09 1:23 |
| 721 | Alan | Chris:I tried color-code.r with Rebol3 and did not work ? | 18-Nov-09 23:58 |
| 720 | Chris | http://www.ross-gill.com/r/r3webform.html <- R3 version of alt-webform (see 9/21) | 18-Nov-09 7:26 |
| 719 | Chris | http://www.ross-gill.com/r/color-code.r http://www.ross-gill.com/r/color-code.html - should now work with R3 | 12-Nov-09 13:31 |
| 718 | Maxim | if you have visual studio (even the free express is enough) then it takes just a few minutes to get Carl's examples working. | 2-Nov-09 22:22 |
| 717 | Maxim | no, but its pretty much the same as what is documented on the R3 extensions site... its really easy. | 2-Nov-09 22:22 |
| 716 | Robert | Max, is the C source code available? As a reference how to do extensions etc. | 2-Nov-09 14:24 |
| 715 | Maxim | doh... wrong group... sorry... | 1-Nov-09 15:14 |
| 714 | Maxim | I did a few tests loading up OpenGL/GLut and it worked without a hitch... waiting for Carl to add a few features before I can continue. screen shot of a rotating cube http://www.pointillistic.com/open-REBOL/moa/steel/R3-OGL.png | 1-Nov-09 15:14 |
| 713 | Chris | You can also browse or do http://bit.ly/AltTwt | 27-Sep-09 20:17 |
| 712 | Chris | Some core Twitter API functions: http://www.ross-gill.com/r/twitter.html ? twitter tw: twitter/find #REBOL twitter/as "rgrebol" "****" fr: twitter/friends new: twitter/update "Now" Results are XML objects - see http://bit.ly/xml_rebol (probe result/tree for structure). Will add more at some point. http://twitter.com/rgrebol | 27-Sep-09 20:15 |
| 711 | Chris | Example: >> to-webform [q "Search String"] == "q=Search+String" | 21-Sep-09 13:02 |
| 710 | Chris | http://www.ross-gill.com/r/altwebform.r [load-webform to-webform] Loads/serializes data in application/x-www-form-urlencoded format allowing for nested values: >> load-webform "a.b=c" == [a [b "c"]] Allows more structured data form otherwise 2d web form data Or can simply be used to encode 2d data for 'rest' services. Extracted from QM. | 21-Sep-09 13:00 |
| 709 | amacleod | Oh let me not forget Anton as I'm using some of his styles... | 5-Sep-09 1:49 |
| 708 | amacleod | Anyway, about the App...
It's a study tool for the FDNY Promotional Exams. It incorporates all the FDNY Manuals into a special format (Similar to Make-doc) and allows you to hi-lite, "attach" notes, search the entire catalogue, bookmark your place, track "buzz words" Future versions will incorporate thousands of test questions all of which are linked to the material by book, chapter, and section, and also the ability to add tour own questions. Curriculums will be added to guide study of only pertinent materials for and test and the ability to form your own curriculums. Updates to the program and the study material is automatic as well as synchronization of a users hi-lites, notes etc. ( this allows for a user to use from multiple locations, home/work etc., and also serves as a back-up method for what could be months of work for the user. Many more plans... If you are interested, my site is still alpha and looks like crap but it has some screen shots and a video of the program in action. I'm using Cheyenne (Thanks Doc) and there is a cute (but ugly) RSP page that handles my FAQs page... http://firecaptainnyc.com If you are really interested, feel free to contact me and I can give you the link to download it.... There is a guest mode and demo mode built in... I welcome any feedback! | 5-Sep-09 1:39 |
| 707 | amacleod | I've finally released my App for Beta testing..over a years work and much more to go before all the features are implemented that will make it a sellable product. I wanted to take a moment to thank this community as I would not have been able to get this far without the Rebol language and even more so the Rebol Community. Thank you all for your patient guidance, and helpful hints and example code. I would like to thank some personally as they have been super helpful (I hope I do not leave anyone out) In no special order: Dockimbel Graham Pekr Henrik Gabriele Sunanda oldes Paul Maxim btiffin Nick Reichart I'm sure I missed a few that helped considerably…sorry if I did. | 5-Sep-09 1:38 |
| 706 | Pekr | I asked Cyphre to add some examples, he will do it as time permits. This new released version should be more stable and should work both with VID and RebGUI .... | 1-Sep-09 11:10 |
| 705 | Pekr | A little bit surprised, that I was asked, if systray support done by Cyphre for my purposes, could be used by others, as I stated it obviously here on altme. To put the confusion aside, Cyphre managed to release it publicly - license - BSD: http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=tray.r | 1-Sep-09 11:00 |
| 704 | Henrik | OK, Carl asked me to announce this, so this will be quick and dirty: The VID Extension Kit for R2: This is a library that overhauls VID and the styles to improve the experience in using it and creating bigger programs with it. This is very much a work in progress, but if I continue to keep it under wraps, I'll never get it out. :-) Quick feature list: - Full tab navigation - Field validation and autoformatting - Full resizing - Many new flags - Much better face control: disabling/enabling faces, different setting and getting of panels, complex face navigation - Many new styles: Selectors, balancers, lists, fields, panels, scrollers, iterators - Many VID bugs are fixed, although the impossible ones still remain - Many new VID bugs are introduced as well :-) Some styles are not working. Try it out at: http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/vid/src/vid-ext-kit.r A simple style browser is available at: http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/vid/tools/style-browser.r Very preliminary docs at: http://www.hmkdesign.dk/rebol/vid/docs/vid-extension-kit.html I'll release the full sources later, but have a look and see what you think. Remember to ask questions. | 29-Aug-09 12:16 |
| 703 | Dockimbel | Jobs scheduler library for REBOL (1st beta) : http://softinnov.org/dl/scheduler-r090.zip - see %scheduler.r header for quick doc & samples - please use [All] channel for replies and discussions about this library | 26-Aug-09 17:01 |
| 702 | james_nak | The author behind http://reboltutorial.com asked me to let you know about his site. I found the tutorial on Parsing quite helpful. Check it out. The Testimonials and the links like http://coolnamehere.com/geekery/rebol/index.html are interesting. | 20-Aug-09 16:01 |

| 699 | Reichart | A poll you might want to fill out. | 14-Aug-09 3:48 |
| 698 | Janko | ah, shit.. I thought I am posting this under Advocacy not Announce .. scratch it ... | 13-Aug-09 17:46 |
| 697 | Janko | A hackerspace was created here in Ljubljana and I got accepted to work there . I suspect I got in because I code in weird languages like REBOL and one of founders is a Linux hacker with a affinity to these more interesting languages. He also mentioned he would like to organise talks in local cybercenter and that iti would be cool if I could present REBOL .. | 13-Aug-09 17:41 |
| 696 | Ladislav | http://www.fm.vslib.cz/~ladislav/rebol/include.r and http://www.fm.vslib.cz/~ladislav/rebol/include3.r upgraded (only FILE! and URL! accepted in INCLUDE-PATH, other values cause an error) | 12-Aug-09 18:59 |
| 695 | Oldes | It's possible, we are already authorized for Wii software development. But first we need to finish it as a pure Flash version. | 6-Aug-09 9:55 |
| 694 | Gabriele | is this going to have a Wii version as well? | 6-Aug-09 9:12 |
| 693 | Oldes | Hi... we are going to finish with the Machinarium game I'm working on using my Rebol/Flash dialect. Last level left to do, adding sounds and of course some bug fixing and optimizations must be done now. Here is the newest trailer (contains a few game spoilers!): http://www.amanita-design.net/blog/2009/08/05/new-trailer/ | 5-Aug-09 19:59 |
| 692 | Graham | Hi all, After learning a lot from you all I feel like I should contribute a bit. On http://alain.goye.free.fr/rebol/ or on Rebol Desktop's "AGReb" Reb site, you can find: - an updated version of %NoteReb.r, a REBOL tree-like notes organizer, similar to and compatible with http://www.treepad.com/ . This new version of NoteReb.r has quite more functionalities; I use it to work. A major bug seems to remain when intensively using the "undo" function of Romano's edit-text-undo.r , which is quite nice despite that. - a simple todo list, %todo-ag.r, which orders tasks by priority based on their importance, workload and deadline... If anyone likes these please drop me a line, and if you improve them, all the better! Alain. | 28-Jul-09 20:49 |
| 691 | Graham | Nice treepad editor announced on mailing list | 28-Jul-09 20:45 |
| 690 | Janko | I have made a screencast of "the other" REBOL/Cheyenne/JS project besides Site Assistant that I have been developing. It's in my language (Slovene) only for now and so is the screencast but I hope images will also give some feeling what it's about. http://screencast.com/t/HxfFGtg9r | 27-Jul-09 21:07 |
| 689 | Graham | http://accessories.s3.amazonaws.com/hotmailer.r is the source | 18-Jul-09 8:38 |
| 688 | Graham | I'd like to add more command line switches but need Max to fix args.r ! | 18-Jul-09 8:29 |

| 686 | Graham | I have a utility that I am testing that will login to hotmail, download all the messages, and then detach alll attachments | 18-Jul-09 8:17 |
| 685 | Graham | Anyone using hotmail these days? | 18-Jul-09 8:16 |
| 684 | Graham | sounds cool ... is it free?? | 27-Jun-09 3:03 |
| 683 | RobertS | I launched the Aule Browser today at http://www.logiquewerks.com/aule-browser/index.html I am also at work on a Qtask browser - but first I have to stop tinkering with my Evernote SSB (you need to tolerate the Curl runtime to view my stuff ) | 27-Jun-09 1:34 |
| 682 | xavier | i have an application for a dentist with which i could do it | 25-Jun-09 19:49 |
| 681 | xavier | i d like to do some 'real' programms in rebol 3 | 25-Jun-09 19:49 |
| 680 | xavier | i have seen it when i was in the house of maxim but according to him it was still presenting inconvenience | 25-Jun-09 19:48 |
| 679 | xavier | yessssssssssssssssssssssss | 25-Jun-09 19:47 |
| 678 | Carl | (xavier: well, it's getting close with so many fixes, no?) | 25-Jun-09 19:44 |
| 677 | Carl | BTW, #51 is rebol.org on R3 chat. | 25-Jun-09 19:43 |
| 676 | xavier | it means that rebol 3 will be released in a few ? | 25-Jun-09 19:43 |
| 675 | Carl | If you need to reach me -- the fastest method is to send me a message on R3 Chat. | 25-Jun-09 19:43 |
| 674 | Carl | I'm posting this message here, because I'm not sure if the ISP knows who to contact for REBOL.org. (Well, actually, I'm not totally sure either, because it was/is a team effort. Last I recall, Sunanda was the primary person -- please excuse me if I am incorrect.) | 25-Jun-09 19:41 |
| 673 | Carl | www.rebol.org is being moved by the ISP to a faster server. I'm not sure they understand what's really involved, so it is very likely that the site is going to break. | 25-Jun-09 19:38 |
| 672 | amacleod | cute...I could see it being useful.. | 22-Jun-09 1:50 |
| 671 | Janko | Another rebol + cheyenne website : http://www.qwikitxt.com/ I am cheating a little this time since it reuses most of qwikitodo :) ... I have made a screencast for the lazy ones to see the features a little deeper inside.. : http://www.screencast.com/t/yRUawmvIB (like visual diffing between versions) | 21-Jun-09 18:59 |
| 670 | Ladislav | Section http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Inclusion_Methods#PREBOL_.28INCLUDE_dialect.29_keywords added | 14-Jun-09 18:09 |
| 669 | Gregg | I'll try to make time to give it some more thought and update the wiki. | 13-Jun-09 22:48 |
| 668 | Ladislav | I added point #8 to http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Inclusion_Methods#General_Needs, I suppose that is what you mean | 13-Jun-09 22:32 |
| 667 | Ladislav | right you are, don't you want to add your idea to the discussion? (you are good at formulating things, better than I am) | 13-Jun-09 22:15 |
| 666 | Gregg | INCLUDE is very nice. What I think it still missing from the wiki are cons about the lower level alternatives with regard to higher level "standards". e.g. with LOAD and custom scripts you can do anything, sure, but there is no standard model, so each system is ad hoc. | 13-Jun-09 22:10 |
| 665 | Ladislav | http://www.fm.vslib.cz/~ladislav/rebol/include.r : error reporting made more comfortable | 13-Jun-09 20:09 |
| 664 | Janko | I looked at the docs and it seems really cool .. | 13-Jun-09 17:08 |
| 663 | Janko | I will look at it .. but I don't know much about this yet .. I haven't yet used PREREBOL and I use do in only the basic way | 13-Jun-09 17:06 |
| 662 | Ladislav | http://www.rebol.net/wiki/INCLUDE_documentation | 13-Jun-09 16:57 |
| 661 | Robert | From experience I can agree to Lad's statement. It's really a very useful INCLUDE, especially if combined with the SDK. | 13-Jun-09 9:41 |
| 660 | Ladislav | Janko: give it a look, I would be surprised, if it didn't suit user's needs better than PREREBOL or DO | 12-Jun-09 20:57 |
| 659 | Ladislav | http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Inclusion_Methods#INCLUDE - my contribution to the discussion | 12-Jun-09 20:56 |
| 658 | Ladislav | The Include function (see http://www.fm.tul.cz/~ladislav/rebol/#section-4.1 ) has a couple of improvements: *introduction of Include-supporting comments (faster, than Comment), that can be either "stripped off" by Include or kept, depending on the KEEP-COMMENTS variable (if the variable is defined, comments are kept, otherwise they are stripped off) *support of embedded scripts as described in http://www.rebol.com/docs/core23/rebolcore-5.html#section-2 | 4-Jun-09 12:17 |
| 657 | Ladislav | Identity, Bindology and Parse versus RE articles the above articles have been revamped and moved to: http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Identity , http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Bindology , http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Parse_versus_RE . When checking, do not forget to read and comment the http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Decimals-64#Rounding section in DevBase. | 31-May-09 19:03 |
| 656 | Maxim | yep, its probably going into mod_remark :-) | 24-May-09 17:21 |
| 655 | PeterWood | I have published the string encoding utlilties that I wrote for rebol.org in the script library. They no doubt pale in comparison to those Gabriele has written but may help until his are finally released for publication. The script package includes a minimal set of unit tests and some rudimentary documentation. http://www.rebol.org/documentation.r?script=str-enc-utils.r | 23-May-09 5:58 |
| 654 | Ladislav | yet another Parse-related text; a corrected version of my older article: http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Parse_versus_RE | 17-May-09 13:41 |
| 653 | amacleod | Got an RSP error when I tried to change the global setting for expiration notification from 5 to 10 days. I had no groups added yet so that might be part of it. | 13-May-09 13:47 |
| 652 | Janko | ( I will reply in Ann-Reply ) | 13-May-09 13:46 |
| 651 | amacleod | "Your account was created" "You can sign up now." Should be "sign in" Its so hard to catch all those little typos without others eyes... I'm going to try it out, Janko. I'll give you any feed back I come up with. | 13-May-09 13:44 |
| 650 | Janko | Site Assistant, which is fully made in REBOL, has been released as public beta. This means you can all sign-up (for free) and try it -- and report me the bugs :) I am trying to get the core system stable and tested, features will still be added. S-A frontend runs on Cheyenne, and backend bots are also written in REBOL. http://www.site-assistant.com | 13-May-09 10:22 |
| 649 | DideC | Announcements only - use Ann-reply to chat [web-public] | 24-Apr-09 9:40 |
| 648 | Graham | free sites don't always cut the mustard | 22-Apr-09 11:41 |
| 647 | Rebolek | what about rebol.org ? | 22-Apr-09 8:14 |
| 646 | ICarii | sigh.. i need to find a new host (free) mustard is too unreliable :( | 22-Apr-09 8:13 |
| 645 | Alan | timing out here | 22-Apr-09 7:26 |
| 644 | ICarii | synth updated. 0.0.4 added bars into song format for better readability totally rewrote multi-note handling fixed endian issue with 16bit samples - 16bit chords still sound horrible.. added progress indicator when building songs added status info on sample size / play time added more note symbols to cater for different timings and rests http://rebol.mustard.co.nz/synth2.r | 21-Apr-09 14:33 |
| 643 | ICarii | site was probably doing nightly server update | 20-Apr-09 18:48 |
| 642 | amacleod | Can't reach hte site. Down? | 20-Apr-09 14:43 |
| 641 | ICarii | it will eventually - just working on the mechanics first | 20-Apr-09 3:29 |
| 640 | ? | Rather yellow glow around the note. I didn't mean make the note yellow. | 20-Apr-09 3:22 |
| 639 | ? | You should have it highlight each note in yellow as it is playing. It will give it a bit of an interactive feel. | 20-Apr-09 3:22 |
| 638 | ICarii | Synth 0.0.3 released.
http://rebol.mustard.co.nz/synth2.r 0.0.3 lots of bugfixes added safety error trap to play-song added ability to put chords inside song block as a block [C4 [C4 E4 G4] [E4 G4] G4...] please note that this still uses a single entry in the timing block sheet music now displays chords added multi-channel support (really 1 or 2 channels atm) 8bit and 16bit sound added added a new song to show chords/multi-note in operation | 20-Apr-09 3:08 |
| 637 | jocko | nice looking program | 19-Apr-09 16:19 |
| 636 | ICarii | Working on a R2 virtual piano/synth with sheet music display etc. Currently reads in a song+timings and has the ability to play and write in Windows/etc RIFF/wav format. http://rebol.mustard.co.nz/synth2.r for those interested. | 19-Apr-09 11:14 |
| 635 | Maxim | rebol babies (like they do for movie productions) | 18-Apr-09 4:55 |
| 634 | Robert | Maybe a "baby born" group really makes sense... | 14-Apr-09 19:07 |
| 633 | Robert | Thanks a lot to all of you. | 14-Apr-09 19:07 |
| 632 | shadwolf | is there a "I'm in heaven with angels group" too ? | 12-Apr-09 12:36 |
| 631 | shadwolf | ... damn on the day of my death i will have to post on this group^:P | 12-Apr-09 12:35 |
| 630 | Anton | No, the best group for this is the "births & deaths" group. | 12-Apr-09 12:34 |
| 629 | Maarten | Congratulations Robert! | 10-Apr-09 8:25 |
| 628 | Mchean | congratulations! | 9-Apr-09 23:24 |
| 627 | Colin | Great news Robert. Congratulations .. and there is no such thing as "enough sleep". | 9-Apr-09 22:12 |
| 626 | Janko | aha, I was totally crazy when I came home from first child.. had no idea what to do.. I am not sure how it will be with second :) | 9-Apr-09 19:13 |
| 625 | Robert | No, 2nd | 9-Apr-09 19:09 |
| 624 | Janko | is it your first child? | 9-Apr-09 19:08 |
| 623 | Robert | Thx. Mom and son come home in 5 days. So trying to sleep as much as possible now :-)) | 9-Apr-09 19:05 |
| 622 | Janko | great , congratulations!! | 9-Apr-09 19:04 |
| 621 | Robert | Today my son "Max Robin" was born. Mother and baby are fit and well up. | 9-Apr-09 18:56 |
| 620 | Robert | I think best group for THIS: | 9-Apr-09 18:55 |
| 619 | Geomol | PostScript dialect v. 0.4.6 released: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/postscript/ Added PDF output via script rebps2pdf.r See documentation! | 16-Mar-09 13:02 |
| 618 | Maxim | liquid v0.7.1 released. -adds freeze functionality to !plug, which allows you to basically turn "off" processing and messaging of a node, while still keeping all of its functionality. this allows you prevent uneccessary processing while setting up a liquid-network by switching off nodes until they are properly setup, for example. -fixes a minor bug, and a regression. | 8-Mar-09 21:25 |
| 617 | Maxim | Blood v0.1.1 released to rebol.org. the first ever public demo of how to use liquid. The application itself is very simple for now, but the code is pretty clean, has a lot of comments to explain a lot of what is going on. | 7-Mar-09 8:14 |
| 616 | Maxim | Uploaded liquid v0.7.0 to rebol.org, first production ready candidate to be released. extensively tested and ultra stable so far (even in real-time graphicaly-oriented several thousand node applications). | 7-Mar-09 6:36 |
| 615 | Rebolek | This discussion should be in Ann-Reply | 5-Mar-09 19:49 |
| 614 | Oldes | :) | 5-Mar-09 19:47 |
| 613 | kib2 | Does that mean that we can use unicode encoding with the help of r2-forward ? | 5-Mar-09 19:40 |
| 612 | kib2 | whaow : 50 Ko :) | 5-Mar-09 19:39 |
| 611 | kib2 | That's it! I missed the get part. Thanks. | 5-Mar-09 19:38 |
| 610 | Rebolek | >> chat >> 837 >> get * | 5-Mar-09 19:38 |
| 609 | Oldes | type 837 to get into the folder and then: get r2-forward.r | 5-Mar-09 19:37 |
| 608 | kib2 | BrianH: Sorry for that question, but how could I find where to download somehing on DevBase ? I saw your messages, but that's all. | 5-Mar-09 19:34 |
| 607 | BrianH | R2-Forward has been released! Now you don't necessarily have to wait for R3 to get finished - use the new functions in R2 now :)
Released to DevBase (aka R3 chat) in Community/Libraries/R2-Forward (837). Tested in 2.6.2, 2.7.5 and 2.7.6. Take a look!
Stats: 72 words exported, 49999 chars, 41522 LM, 29730 LMF, 8379 LMFC. Obviously, there are whole categories of stuff that won't be backported; the notes say what is supported. You'd be surprised what I *have* managed to backport though - even some datatypes are spoofed :) Discussions in R3 chat #837, or the Core group here. More testing is welcome - I'd like to push my tested platforms back as far as 2.5.0 if I can. My todo list for R2-Forward is pretty extensive... | 5-Mar-09 18:53 |
| 606 | Geomol | Try the example in the start of the documentation: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/postscript/postscript.html | 3-Mar-09 17:13 |
| 605 | Janko | Geomol thanks, do you have any example of usage? | 3-Mar-09 16:59 |
| 604 | Geomol | PostScript dialect v. 0.4.4 released:
http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/postscript/postscript.r Added replacement of some special characters, that need to be escaped. | 3-Mar-09 16:56 |
| 603 | Geomol | Thanks, Paul! | 2-Mar-09 17:27 |
| 602 | ? | Well done, John. | 2-Mar-09 16:49 |
| 601 | Geomol | Updated RebXML scripts found at http://www.rebol.org (Bug fixes and improvements.) RebXML spec: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/rebxml/rebxml-spec.html | 2-Mar-09 16:14 |
| 600 | Geomol | NicomDoc v. 2.1 can still be found here: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/nicomdoc/ver2.1/ | 2-Mar-09 15:44 |
| 599 | Geomol | NicomDoc v. 2.2 released: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/nicomdoc/ - Added output for TeX (LaTeX). - New way to specify fonts by font family. - New way to resize fonts relative -4 ... +5. - Scaling of images. - Math engine had big overhaul to not be focused on semantics, but on presentation (less errors in practise). - Text in code examples will be wrapped at 77 chars per line. - Added vertical space by simply doing more newlines in a row. - Updated all documentation and examples. | 2-Mar-09 15:35 |
| 598 | Oldes | If someone miss a chance to save into JPEGs, GIFs or other formats directly from REBOL, here is simple image saver using Imagemagick's library. http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/save-image.html | 19-Feb-09 2:14 |
| 597 | Mchean | looks good | 18-Feb-09 17:08 |
| 596 | Oldes | it's there now http://pygments.org/demo/?lang=rebol | 18-Feb-09 13:50 |
| 595 | Oldes | Maybe it needs some time. | 9-Feb-09 21:01 |
| 594 | Mchean | Oldes: code is there but it doesn't show up as an option in the pull down menu at pygments.org | 9-Feb-09 18:15 |
| 593 | Robert | Going to give a speech about Rebol in May/June at a university in Germany. Hopefully showing the potential to a lot of professors and students. Spread the word! | 9-Feb-09 7:42 |
| 592 | BrianH | Right. Compatibility with R2 has never been a goal of R3. | 9-Feb-09 4:14 |
| 591 | Gabriele | (when we started including VID3 in R3, we had to switch from using R2 for the build process to using R3 itself, just because of that.) | 8-Feb-09 10:04 |
| 590 | Gabriele | Brian, right, but that's enough to make R2 unable to load R3 files... | 8-Feb-09 10:02 |
| 589 | kib2 | Ive updated my old pastebin (sorry for its name) so that you can test Oldes's Pygment lexer (and you can have html,latex,svg,etc outputs) : http://clojurepastebin.appspot.com/ | 7-Feb-09 17:03 |
| 588 | BrianH | At this point just percent and the prefix being dropped from money, hence the "almost". No range. | 7-Feb-09 16:44 |
| 587 | Chris | And range! ? | 7-Feb-09 16:04 |
| 586 | Gabriele | Brian... percent! | 7-Feb-09 8:51 |
| 585 | BrianH | There is almost no difference in syntax between R2 and R3, but the predefined words are different (and getting moreso). | 6-Feb-09 22:38 |
| 584 | kib2 | Oldes: so they finally accepted it ? Good news ! I suppose it's for R2 only ? | 6-Feb-09 22:34 |
| 583 | Oldes | I must say, that the Pygments is much more better designed then a Geshi syntax highlighter (PHP). | 6-Feb-09 21:48 |
| 582 | Oldes | It's there http://dev.pocoo.org/projects/pygments/browser/pygments/lexers/other.py#L1626 | 6-Feb-09 21:44 |
| 581 | Mchean | Oldes: cool. Let us know if they don't add it and we can bombard them with requests | 3-Feb-09 4:35 |
| 580 | Reichart | Here is a direct link though - http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3031/2309872444_844f7663cd.jpg?v=0 | 3-Feb-09 3:11 |

| 573 | kib2 | Oldes: they've done it for other langages (superiror to Python too), like Haskell. | 2-Feb-09 21:04 |
| 572 | kib2 | Janko: :) | 2-Feb-09 21:03 |
| 571 | Janko | I understand them, Rebol is the Python Killer :) (well but they don't know it yet anyway) | 2-Feb-09 20:45 |
| 570 | Oldes | I told them.. but.. I think that the Python community is not much communicative. At least from my short experience with Python. Anyway.. now I recognized that I forgot to add the special REBOL notation for numbers like: 1'000.00 I will add it later. (I was never fun of these notations, but someone may use it) | 2-Feb-09 20:36 |
| 569 | kib2 | Oldes: you site is awesome, really. | 2-Feb-09 20:02 |
| 568 | kib2 | Oldes : I'm sure they'll do if you tell them. | 2-Feb-09 19:53 |
| 567 | Oldes | So the REBOL lexer for Pygments syntax highlighter is here http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/rebolLexer.py Let's see if the Python guys will add it into the distribution. | 2-Feb-09 18:41 |
| 566 | ? | Good Job Oldes! | 30-Jan-09 2:08 |
| 565 | Oldes | Started writing a RebolLexer for pygments.org | 30-Jan-09 0:52 |

| 562 | amacleod | PeterWood, I had downloaded some single chapters and I liked what I read... I'm going to order the printed version but I notice its black and white only? I was hoping the printed version would b ecolor but I guess that would increase costs... | 29-Dec-08 19:13 |
| 561 | Henrik | (moving to Ann-Reply) | 29-Dec-08 14:46 |
| 560 | Pekr | uhm .... I would not put it that way ... still REBOL related and hence appreciated ... we should chat in ann-reply probably ... | 29-Dec-08 14:46 |
| 559 | Henrik | Perhaps with the size of this forum, paid advertising would work against Peter. | 29-Dec-08 14:46 |
| 558 | ? | Is this the right place to announce commericial efforts? Seem like Reichart is missing out on advertising fees. | 29-Dec-08 14:42 |
| 557 | PeterWood | It seems that Lulu.com has unfortunately recently increased its shipping charges especially to one or two countries. I have also heard that the shipping cost can be affected by the currency in which you buy the book. I believe that if you specify US Dollars to buy the book, it will be shipped from the US even if you live in Europe. It might be worth switching currencies if the shipping costs seems too high. | 29-Dec-08 14:40 |
| 556 | PeterWood | I am very pleased to announce that the printed version of "Rebol - A programmer's guide" is now available. The price is 25 Euros.Ê The book can be purchased at http://www.lulu.com/content/5382304 | 29-Dec-08 14:39 |

It is quite possible that I may have introduced the odd bug during their translation. If you find any please let me know. | 20-Dec-08 9:04 |
| 553 | Chris | < QM > Version 0.3.9 http://www.ross-gill.com/QM/ Fixes a context issue with QuickTags (bug fix). Minor change to the Cheyenne 'request/content' handling (bug fix). And thanks to Ammon for giving it testdrive, helps greatly in sorting out priorities! | 20-Dec-08 3:25 |

| 548 | james_nak | Rebolers- You have probably noticed we are trying to get together for a Rebcon on 12/27/08 @ 12:00 PM PST. We have some checklists started for both presenters and those who will attend. We need to get a specific headcount if possible due to the nature of the tools we are proposing to use so please sign up as soon as you can. Thanks. James | 18-Dec-08 18:46 |
| 547 | ? | Also a bit confusing is the pricing. When you click the link it takes you to a lower price but when you click to preview the book it states another price (these are all listed in dollars). | 18-Dec-08 13:01 |

| 544 | Maxim | args.r released on rebol.org... pretty powerfull command-line argument management. *dialect driven *typed arguments. *optional arg support (with default values) *different flag modes *automatic command-line error reporting *and much more... the idea is not to provide a rebol interface to the cli, but provide a cli interface to rebol. so for example, to escape chars, we use "\" not "^" . the systems builds a parse rule out of your command-line spec and runs it against the supplied string. there is a preliminary demo which shows how to use it... full docs expected this week-end. (they are drafted, but need to be revised and organised properly). | 11-Dec-08 21:30 |

| 541 | PeterWood | The preview of translation of the final chapter of Olivier Auverlot's Rebol - Guide du Programmeur is now available atÊhttp://www.lulu.com/content/4564589
This final chapter consists of a number of workshops that bring together much that has been covered in the book. These case studies focus on the foundations to build a video game, on developing a chat program, on writing a MySQL administration console, and finally on creating a reblet for Rebol/IOS. There is still a little work left before the book can be published. I hope that it won't take too long. Once the full book is published, the individual preview chapters will be withdrawn from Lulu.com. One of the things still to be done is toÊangliciseÊthe sample scripts which will then be made available for downloading. | 21-Oct-08 0:25 |
| 540 | PeterWood | At last, the electronic pre-release of Chapter 6 of the translation of Olivier Auverlot's "Rebol - Guide du Programmer" (http://www.rebol.com/article/0324.html) is now available atÊ(Êhttp://www.lulu.com/content/4426599Ê) for EUR 2.99. This chapter starts with a short overview of how to configure and manage Rebol/View desktops to provide a "virtual office". It moves quickly into serious programming topics in a Unix environment covering console data display, handling keystrokes, command line arguments, file access rights, shell access, pipes, sockets, Unix signals and dynamic library calls. A thorough introduction to RebDB rounds out the chapter. | 11-Oct-08 0:58 |

| 533 | BrettH | I note with interest the efforts to translate the latest REBOL book from French to English to be published via LuLu. Do you realize that LuLu are unable/unwilling to deliver to international P.O. Box addresses !!?!! -- they gave me some Bull Dust story about how The Australian Postal Service wont deliver to a P.O Box !! Strange how AMAZON seems happy to deliver to a P.O. Box. and have done so for many years. So getting the book might prove difficult for some people. | 20-Jul-08 5:12 |

Can handle 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 color images, HAM6 images (4096 colors) and HALFBRITE (64 colors). HALFBRITE hasn't been tested yet, as I couldn't find such an image easily. Handle both compressed and non-compressed images. This is an example, where rebcode would help a lot, as a 320x200 image can take several seconds to uncompress.

Olivier and I have been working on an English translation, "REBOL - a programmer's guide" for a little while now. The book will eventually be published in both printed and electronic form on lulu.com. The prices are likely to be Euro 25.00 for the printed edition and Euro 16.99 for the portable document format version (pdf) version. (For those of you outside the Euro zone, Lulu also provides prices in Pounds Sterling and US Dollars.) As the translation is likely to take some time to complete, we are providing exclusive previews of each chapter for those who don't want to wait until the whole book has been translated. The previews will only be available until the complete book is ready. Each chapter will be published as a pdf once it is available and will cost Euro 2.99. The first chapter "Discover Rebol in an hour" is a hands-on introduction to Rebol for programmers following the development of an automated File Transfer Protocol (FTP) client. It covers many facets of this highly productive language. It is available today at http://www.lulu.com/content/2092020 The next three chapters, "The Rebol Language", "GUI, graphics and sound" and "Networking and the Internet" will be available within the next few days. Olivier is the author of the book; I am the author of any mistakes that have crept in during the translation. | 6-Mar-08 8:54 |

| 485 | Pekr | Carl just announced R2-beta world. If you want an account, ask BrianH, Henrik or Gabriele. The purpose is to proceed with 2.7++ releases ... | 2-Mar-08 23:03 |
| 484 | Geomol | REBOL PostScript dialect v. 0.4.3 released. http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.r Doc: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.html Added decimal! option for size in TEXT alignment. Moved TRANSFORM up front in PAGE, so it's possible to let a transform work on a whole page instead of just a PATH. Added description of COMMENT to doc. | 26-Feb-08 17:03 |
| 483 | Geomol | REBOL postscript dialect version 0.4.2 is out, BSD license.
http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.r
Documentation here: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.html
Added PageSize with support for A4, A5 and US Letter for now.
Added images. Example of use: do http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/postscript/postscript.r write %palms.ps postscript [DeviceRGB page [translate 100x400 scale 72x72 image http://www.rebol.com/view/palms.jpg]] The file palms.ps is now a PostScript file describing a page with an image on. Try view or print it. | 24-Feb-08 17:27 |
| 482 | PatrickP61 | Geomol, Just read your NicomDB thesis and thought it was well done. Just a quick note about a mis-spelling on page 36 toward the bottom. "If we think back to the four basic operations on a data record, they are Read, White, Rewrite and Delete." I think you mean "Write" instead of "White". | 23-Feb-08 22:00 |
| 481 | Geomol | The first version of the database, NicomDB, is released. See group !NicomDB | 19-Feb-08 19:13 |
| 480 | Geomol | yes, sorry | 13-Feb-08 22:44 |
| 479 | Geomol | Henrik, as I understand those licenses, with GPL, you can only use the code for free in GPL projects. With BSD, you can use the code for free in not-open-source projects too. This way we hope ot finance further development by close-source licenses. | 13-Feb-08 22:44 |
| 478 | Henrik | should movve to ann-reply... | 13-Feb-08 22:44 |
| 477 | Geomol | I'm confident, we talk weeks, not months. The first part of the code probably in days. From experience, I know, time estimates on software projects are very hard to do, but in this case, all the old code is there, I would just like to review it, test and optimize a little before release. | 13-Feb-08 22:42 |
| 476 | Henrik | Geomol, so why GPL instead of BSD? | 13-Feb-08 22:40 |
| 475 | TomBon | geomol, interesting concept. It will also be interesting to see the performance and behavior with different filesystems like: ZFS,REISER, NFS XFS, CFS, GFS etc. in mysql you can choose the database engine, with nicomDB you choose the filesystem for different features. (e.g. REISER for speed, NFS for distributed networking, CFS/EncFS for crypto, GFS for cluster etc. :-) any aprox. date when it will be available? | 13-Feb-08 22:38 |
| 474 | BrianH | Good business model :) | 13-Feb-08 20:44 |
| 473 | Geomol | Yes. | 13-Feb-08 20:43 |
| 472 | BrianH | GPL with commercial closed-source option? | 13-Feb-08 20:43 |
| 471 | Geomol | My database NicomDB, created with my friend Martin Nyberg, is going open source under GPL license. The plan is to release the source a little at a time, so we can make sure, everything is working with as many versions of REBOL as possible incl. the coming R3. For now, my original thesis for an education, I ended some years ago, is available at: http://www.fys.ku.dk/~niclasen/nicomdb/thesis.pdf It describes much of the unique concepts of this relational database. | 13-Feb-08 20:42 |
| 470 | Anton | Geomol, nice work ! | 8-Feb-08 13:39 |
| 469 | Reichart | Very cool! Talk about a flashback... | 6-Feb-08 11:17 |

| 462 | btiffin | Sorry, supposed to be in Ann-Reply. My bad. | 9-Jan-08 2:30 |
| 461 | btiffin | From Announce
TimW: any chance for a linux alpha?
Anton: Not at this time. The Windows version runs well in Wine, though. I may have the version wrong...not at home. You need Wine 9.14? or greater - released from winehq a few months ago or REBOL wait will not function properly, pretty much hosing VID. It was a timer call bug in Wine that's been fixed. It was not an R3 problem, but Wine. | 9-Jan-08 2:29 |
| 460 | Anton | Not at this time. The Windows version runs well in Wine, though. | 9-Jan-08 1:42 |
| 459 | TimW | any chance for a linux alpha? | 9-Jan-08 1:41 |
| 458 | Henrik | Wait a minute. Let me rephrase that: REBOL3.0 Alpha 1 for Windows is out You can download it here: http://www.rebol.net/builds/rebol3/alpha/rebol29904031.zip Carl has made a blog entry about it here: http://www.rebol.com/article/0347.html Please note that this is alpha software and represents a work in progress! Be nice to the developers. There's no support for you yet, but it will come later. Now play with it and be good. | 8-Jan-08 21:47 |
| 457 | Maarten | Or.... | 8-Jan-08 21:47 |
| 456 | Maarten | Or Erlang | 8-Jan-08 21:47 |
| 455 | Maarten | Or Ruby | 8-Jan-08 21:47 |
| 454 | Henrik | Ladies and Gentlemen, Carl Sassenrath of REBOL Technologies would like to announce that all R3 development has been cancelled and that you should all go home and play with Perl instead. Or Python. | 8-Jan-08 21:44 |
| 453 | Chris | <-QM-> Version 0.2.1 -- new controllers; file upload; reorganised for better console-running mode; (hopefully) better namespace handling; user and session handling ready http://www.ross-gill.com/QM/ Tested on Apache. Tested briefly on Cheyenne. | 2-Dec-07 23:41 |
| 452 | Oldes | String based Rebol's PHP Code Colorizer: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/php-colorizer.r Here is test ouput of some colorized PHP code: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/test/test-php.html | 27-Nov-07 14:50 |
| 451 | Oldes | Not much... just goes thru avi file and prints it's structure. I just wanted to know how looks the AVI inside. But if you add part for decoding the video chunks, you can for example extract images. Or you can easily extract all audio chunks. | 10-Nov-07 18:58 |
| 450 | Steeve | coffee ? | 9-Nov-07 20:12 |
| 449 | amacleod | What does it do? | 9-Nov-07 17:28 |
| 448 | Oldes | And if someone would like to know, what is inside AVI files (without need to use xMB of dlls or binary utils)... here is another experimental script: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/avi_latest.r | 9-Nov-07 15:58 |
| 447 | Oldes | To test it with animatedGif you may try: gif/parse http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/95/Headloss.gif | 8-Nov-07 18:20 |
| 446 | Oldes | The script is using %stream-io.r script which I use more and more for binary manipulations. | 8-Nov-07 18:15 |
| 445 | Oldes | GIF parser. At this moment it just prints info and or inserts comment. do http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/gif_latest.r gif/parse http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/bitmaps/chinese.gif write/binary %test.gif gif/add-comment http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/bitmaps/chinese.gif "test" gif/parse %test.gif | 8-Nov-07 18:13 |
| 444 | Oldes | Rebol/Flash dialect (RSWF) version 2.5.0 is available!
compressed: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/rswf_latest.r (89kB)
uncompressed: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/rswf_2.5.0.r (331kB)
as colorized HTML: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/rswf_2.5.0.html (885kB) What's new: - New swf-parser included which replaces old exam-swf function (useful for importing foreign SWF files) - Added implementation of Class definitions for SWF versions 6 and higher (I have to create some examples) - Added new 'trace function into actions (which can be use to compile swf files with or without trace calls easily) - 'require and 'include now accepts block of files or urls (I should modify my rswf code colorizer to show included files as well) Here is also new example how to include first of GUI elements: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/example/swf8-cliphandler In the future I would like to create something like mini Layout dialect which will be used for better positioning of the new GUIs I'm working on. | 8-Oct-07 15:20 |
| 443 | Kaj | It detects conflicts. But it only seems to work on Windows | 6-Oct-07 19:50 |
| 442 | Kaj | It syncs directories, and apparently also MySQL and SQLite databases - or it needs them for functioning | 6-Oct-07 19:49 |
| 441 | Graham | Rebsync - http://www.easybraine.com/index.cfm?content_id=40 if anyone knows french, perhaps they could explain what it does! | 6-Oct-07 19:41 |
| 440 | Louis | Nice, Oldes! | 29-Sep-07 14:09 |
| 439 | Oldes | String based Rebol Code colorizer --> http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/code-colorizer.r
using it, Rebol source can look like:
http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rebol/code-colorizer.html
http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/rswf-main-rules.html
or http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/rswf-main-rules-full-code.html There is still a lot of things to improve, but it's already quite useful. (at least it does not suffer with recursion parse limits which I reached with good old Carl's %color-code.r script) | 28-Sep-07 17:42 |
| 438 | Oldes | - this version uses completly new actions parser (thanks to Ladislav for his help) | 13-Sep-07 9:09 |
| 437 | Oldes | New version (2.0.0) of Rebol/Flash dialect (RSWF) is available here: http://box.lebeda.ws/~hmm/rswf/ | 13-Sep-07 9:08 |
