Hi Ashley,
Work around for #2 is to use the AS-IS keyword.
i.e. change the text-list to :
text-list data files as-is

Another marathon weekend with REBOL and a few more "things that don't work
the way I expect them to". Apologies in advance if some of these have
already been covered in depth (eScribe searches just don't cut it ;) ).
Problems I hit were:
1. Scrolled area text affecting other field(s)
2. text-list anomalies with first entry
3. alt-down SLOW under windows (but OK under Linux)
4. load treating a one line block as a block, but multi-lines as blocks
within a block, makes it hard to write something like:
foreach block load %test.dat [print block/1] ; this handles 0 and > 1
lines but not 1 line
Anyway, the code to demo these "problems" is given below, any advice on
simple work-arounds / misconceptions greatly appreciated. If any need to go
to feedback let me know. (On a related matter, how can one tell what has
already been sent to feedback . . . is there a "reported bug" summary of
some sort?).
<code>
REBOL []
files: copy []
foreach file read %. [
insert tail files reform ["o^-" file]
]
view center-face layout [
text 200 {Click "Area" then type two lines of text in the area, close and reopen
the window.
Notice how the field text has been repositioned.}
button 200 "Area" [
view/new center-face layout [
field 50 "Text"
area 50x30
]
]
text 200 {Notice how the first tab is ignored.}
text-list data files
text 200 {Click rapidly with the left then right mouse buttons.
Notice how left clicks are faster than right clicks [on Windoze].}
box blue 200x50 "Click here" with [
data: now/time/precise
feel: make feel [
engage: func [face action event] [
if action = 'alt-down [
print reform ["Right" now/time/precise - face/data]
face/data: now/time/precise
]
if action = 'down [
print reform ["Left" now/time/precise - face/data] face/data:
now/time/precise
]
]
]
]
text 200 {The first result counts values within a block, the second the number of
blocks.}
button 200 "Load block(s)" [
write/lines %test.dat remold [now now]
print length? load %test.dat
write/append/lines %test.dat remold [now now]
print length? load %test.dat
]
]

Ashley
