BTW: Is it possible to brace expressions programmatically? Thanks Robert

Sterling above takes the file from the command line arguments. What's more surprising is that that script is sending you readme.txt under windows. The code you sent should ONLY ever send you %mailer.r. ? -jeff

[REBOL] Sorting and language specific chars ...
Hi,
I've just received one interesting question regarding localisations in
REBOL ...
are there any plans for "localisation" of REBOL??? I mean, different
countries has different settings for money (currency), name of months,
days of week could be localised too.
Different countries also have different character sets, e.g. Czech
language:
str: "abcèdïefghchijklmnòopqrøstuvwxyz"
as it can be displayed wrongly here, try decompressing following string:
>> huh: compress str
== #{
789C4B4C4A7E91F23E352D3D233923332B3B2737EF537E4161D18FE25925734B
CBCA2B2AABE6010035A211812300
}
Note that "ch" placed behind "h" char is considered to be just one char
in our language ...
some sort/country str 'czech should be available :-)
Any solution?

Jan, I'm sorry for not chiming in a timely manner. I've been going over your script, deciphering it and attempting to use it for just that purpose (making graphs)... Thank you for your great script!

[REBOL] almost counter CGI Re:(4)
To all, The following program creates pretty date and time in American format. To use it, enter do read %file, where file is the name of the file in which the program is stored. I think the code is quite clear, but if you have any difficulties, I shall be glad to explain further. Jerry date: function [][t d m] [ t: now/time t: fixtime reduce [t/1 t/2 t/3] d: join pick ['Monday 'Tuesday 'Wednesday 'Thursday 'Friday 'Saturday 'Sunday] now/weekday "," m: pick ['January 'February 'March 'April 'May 'June 'July 'August 'September 'October 'November 'December] now/month Print [d m join now/day "," join now/year "," t] ] fixtime: function [t][a] [ a: t/1 if and (a < 12)(a > 0) [return join a [":" t/2 ":" t/3 " AM"]] if a > 12 [a: a - 12 return join a [":" t/2 ":" t/3 " PM"]] if a = 12 [return join 12 [":" t/2 ":" t/3 " PM"]] if a = 0 [return join 12 [":" t/2 ":" t/3 " AM"]] ]
[REBOL] epoch? Re:(13)
My look was a little too quick. I was looking for the constant 400, and saw only 100 and 4, but by first dividing by 100 and then by 4, the years divisible by 400 are turned into leap years, as they should be! For another question. How are the decimal parts of the JD numbers to be interpreted? I always assumed JD no's were integers.

Jan, I was quite impressed by your script and the way you constructed a "composite" GIF from pieces for the individual digits. I didn't have time to delve into your code deeply, but if you'd care to take a moment to describe how it all works (i.e., the "header, body, tail" of a GIF) and HOW you created the binary strings that comprise the GIFs for each digit, it sure would make interesting reading. I'm sure the technique could be expanded and utilized in many different applications, as you imply here. Another possible use would be to add a date/time/title banner to a GIF, say an image from a security camera.
