[REBOL] how do you move a file to another directory and preserve it's date? Re:(3)

WS_FTP and NcFTP do it with the MDTM command. I'm not sure how standard it is, but I am sure that not all servers implement it. I find it quite useful whenever it is implemented, though, particularly for doing file management using FTP. I suppose that someone could look at connection logs from one of those programs, or if that fails, the source to NcFTP. Brian Hawley
[REBOL] group projects
I checked SourceForge and there isn't a single REBOL project listed. I have started a project myself and I have a vision, but I'm not sure whether SourceForge is the place to post it. Does anyone have plans for a REBOL site where persons can work together on REBOL projects? Is anyone interested in working on group projects? My sense is that the REBOL community is largely made up of developers who may be averse to group projects for fear that someone else may make money off of their ideas. Or maybe the REBOL community is so small that group projects haven't surfaced yet. I'd like to know your throughts on this. Ryan Christiansen Web Developer

Partial results can be found on sintezar.bizland.com . It looks interesting. You seem to be on the right track. I'm glad I'm not the only one to think of this use for rebol! (Trying to dowload it now... Oh yes, it makes a sound! Took 3 seconds using the pc at work...) I had a lot of ideas in this area. Rebol seems such a great language to use. For example, I wanted to make a kind of tracker where all the different columns of data are fully separable. We shouldn't be limited to fixed block sizes and rigidly aligned tracks. Also, we should be able to use the results of a track as a sample, inserting it as many times as we want, and optionally applying different effects each time. This should be a recursive technique, meaning that we should be able to embed tracks within tracks within tracks... With lots of caching, this can be done. Then there is the issue of control. With one slider we should be able to do many interesting things at once. For example, given a series of volumes: myvolumes: [1 1 1 1] we should be able to program a slider so that it alters any combination of these values. If we link it so that it alters the third a fourth value, when we move the slider down, we should get for an instant [1 1 0.5 0.5]. myvolumes may be used in a song at many places. Because it has been embedded in several tracks, when the playing position gets to a point where myvolumes is used, the latest updated values are used to compute the track volume. But, because it's just a series, it needn't necessarily be used only to specify volume... eg. cutoff, resonance. And the same slider action could also control something like the octave of an instrument, etc etc ad inifiinitum. I need a dialect for all these specifications. Rebol has gone halfway already. I need to do the other half. Do I sound like a madman? I know it can work! A tracker in rebol might be a bit slow, though... but for dialecting and testing it will be great. I need some feedback from people. I don't think I can do it on my own anymore. It's too big! Save me from my frustration and madness! ;-) Anton.

[REBOL] View and nesting layouts
>From what I've seen of /View thus far, I like it, but have ran into a brick wall when it comes to nesting layouts. It seems that across and below won't nest. If you specify one or the other after one or the other, it cancels the previous one. i.e. REBOL[] view layout [ across below a1: area "text area" across t1: text "foo" f1: field "text field" return a2: area "text area" b1: button "foo2" ] I've indented to allow for better flow following. I have also noticed that across and below do not support [] brackets. Is anything planned to address these issues? They seem to impede on advanced layouts. -- Regards, Deryk Robosson // [EMAIL PROTECTED] // http://linux.tc3net.com/newlook
[REBOL] Off-topic: Improving career chances
Hello, Sorry to post off-topic, but I highly regard all you seasoned Rebol-allies, so if you don't feel compelled to reply, just ignore this post... =) My careerpath was looking fine until about a week ago, when I received the opportunity to move to India. Of course, I would have to get a job there, so I started to look around on those jobsites, and I was startled by the amount of experience that is required for most jobs in Indian IT. 4-8 years seems to be the rule... Unfortunately, I don't have that much experience, and I can't change that. But I can change my skills, better them, in fact. So I was looking to extend my current programming abilities (which include Rebol ;o), Javascript, PHP), which do not include any "real" languages, to some more languages. My question is: which ones do you recommend? I was thinking C and Perl (I'm already doing SQL). I believe C++ is a can of worms? What is the difference between C and C++? Thanks for your time.
