Hi Carlos

Ingo's first example used find:

Index? find next find str #"*" #"*"

If you insert ( )s it helps to see what's going on (though it would slow
Rebol down)

Index? (find (next (find str #"*")) #"*")

Working from the inner parentheses (brackets) outward :

1. Find str #"*" sets the index of str at the first * found

2. Next ( ) sets the index of str to the next character

3. Find (( )) #"*" sets the index of str at the next * found

4. index? ((( ))) returns the value of the index as an integer.

Hope this explanation helps.

Peter

Gabriele,

The question is that I cannot figure out how to do it using find.
Would you mind to give a help?
