Hi Max, in fact I only have 1 user.r file in the correct dir and I do display what-dir from it. It does display correct when I use the HOME variable but right after switching to REBOL_HOME (with exactly the same contents as HOME had) there's no display, so user.r was not loaded.
I don't know when the new View will finally be available - perhaps I should wait till then ;-D Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Arie van Wingerden http://home.zonnet.nl/rebolution/ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Maxim Olivier-Adlhoch" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, May 03, 2004 5:00 PM Subject: [REBOL] Re: [The Gimp] clashes with REBOL on Windows 2000 > > but did you put a user.r file in the REBOL_HOME path? > > it might help you if you put the following in ALL your user.r files: > > probe what-dir > > > this will at least tell you WHICH user.r is being run... also remember that if you create an icon and give it a startup directory, it will be looking for an user.r directory THERE first. > > -MAx > --- > "You can either be part of the problem or part of the solution, but in the end, being part of the problem is much more fun." > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Arie van Wingerden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Monday, May 03, 2004 10:18 AM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: [REBOL] Re: [The Gimp] clashes with REBOL on Windows 2000 > > > > > > > > Hi Max and Gabriele, > > > > thanks for your help! > > > > In the REBOL Language FAQ I found a reference to REBOL_HOME, > > but I couldn't > > find references anywhere else! > > There are however references to the HOME variable in de Core > > Users Guide. > > > > As you say Gabriele, indeed I found a variable HOME in the registry, > > pointing to the correct directory. > > My problem however is that my user.r doesn't get executed > > without a correct > > HOME environment variable! > > Replacing HOME with REBOL_HOME just makes that user.r doesn't > > get executed > > anymore, which is bad! > > > > What is also important is that it did work without problems > > (without an > > environment variable), when I had the regular REBOL/View > > version running. > > The problem started when I switched to the latest View Beta > > (rebview1246031.exe). > > > > I then could solve it with a HOME env. var to get user.r > > executed again. > > But now the Gimp really needs (another) HOME var and clashes > > with REBOL. > > > > Using REBOL_HOME doesn't work AFAICS > > > > Any ideas? > > > > BTW, I really do not understand why RT doesn't package View > > beta releases in > > exactly the same way as regular releases!!! > > > > Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, > > Arie van Wingerden > > http://home.zonnet.nl/rebolution/ > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "Arie van Wingerden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Sent: Monday, May 03, 2004 12:35 PM > > Subject: [REBOL] Re: [The Gimp] clashes with REBOL on Windows 2000 > > > > > > > > > > Hi Max, > > > > > > some time ago I had problems with my user.r file not being used. > > > Than I got some advice in the list to use the HOME > > environment variable. > > > That variable is documented in REBOL/Core User Guide Chapter 1.2. > > > > > > I'll now try REBOL_HOME.
