[REBOL] A novice question Re:
Hi Vik, Did you retry your program in a fresh session of Rebol? It may have been that during your writing/testing of your program you got to a point that triggered the Rebol GC bug (which I understand is being looked at by RT). Regarding the keywords are they tags or text? This might change the approach. If say your keywords are part of the text, are immediately before and after your job posting information, and are unique enough, then you could just ignore the tags completely and parse based on your keywords. Something like this maybe: parse-rules: [ some [ thru keyword-one-text copy text to keyword-two-text (print text) ] Also, it may not be relevant, but note that the parse function as used in script examples ignores spaces by default (use parse/all if you want parse to process spaces). On a different track, Rebol version 2.3 has the ability to load markup. Like this, >> loaded-page: load/markup http://www.abc.net.au/news loaded-page is now a block that contains values of type tag! and type string!. foreach item loaded-page [ if not tag? item [ print item ] ] or use parse in block mode rules abc-news-headlines: [ thru some [ thru copy text to (print text)] to end ] >> parse loaded-page abc-news-headlines Supply ship approaches rescue site as hopes fade Muslim extremists collapse hostage release talks Monsoon bus tragedy in central India US bushfires not letting up Gore pulls ahead in US presidential poll Man falls overboard in crocodile-infested waters Fighting couple force jumbo jet to land Sport news This is good if you know exactly what the value of some items in the block are, but not sood good if you need to do pattern matching. For example finding the title text is easy because we know a tag exists in the b lock. >> copy/part find/tail loaded-page 1 == ["ABC Online News - Latest Bulletin"] Brett. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, August 20, 2000 8:27 AM Subject: [REBOL] A novice question > I was trying to modify the web parser code from the > User's Guide.

Hello [EMAIL PROTECTED]! On 18-Ago-00, you wrote: c> So once existed a REBOL compiler. This is good to know. c> Who knows at this very moment someone has a new version "on c> the oven"? It's unlikely. REBOL 1.0 was very close to Scheme, and Sherman is a REBOL to Scheme compiler, written in Scheme. It has some limitations with respect to the interpeted REBOL 1.0, too. REBOL 2.0 is very different, and is probably more difficult to translate to Scheme (mainly because it's more powerful :). This doesn't mean that a translator for a subset of REBOL isn't possible, but IMHO it wouldn't be very useful. (Not that I am an expert of Scheme, but I assume compiled Scheme has its limitations, too.) I'd more likely create a new compiled language, if that's really needed.
