[REBOL] test program needed
Could one of you Rebol jockeys write a one-line program (actually any length) that does the following: Opens a port to another machine running a similar Rebol program and just sends and receives data? I am trying to debug a problem with what is probably the wireless driver on a WinCe machine and I suspect that it dies when there is sustained data flowing in both directions. I am sure I could, given sufficient time, do this myself but we are trying to do this quickly. Thanks.

[REBOL] [REBOL] Palm port? Re:(3)
wrt Win CE PPC...the Casio E-100 or E105 is a very nice machine (there are MANY others) and MS certainly has a development environment for PPC. I would think that once you have it working on HPC (which you do), PPC ought to be relatively easy. Given this machines color LCD, decent sound ,16 or 32MB, available ethernet interface, etc. it might make a usable, portable Rebol system.

[REBOL] wanna help me "cheat?" Re:(2)
Support for negative arguments and multiplication and division would also be
nice but native support for infinite precision arithmetic, as is found in
Python or Lisp, would be even better.

[REBOL] archive Re:(2)
Cheryl, Thanks! I am not new to the Rebol list but I admit that I have not been looking at www.rebol.org or I obviously would have known that they housed the archive. Do you know how far back the archive goes? Just as a test, I searched for my postings and the earliest appeared to be Aug. '99. BTW, I did the same search multiple times and got different results each time. Thanks, Ira [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Ira, > > The REBOL mailing list archive resides at www.rebol.org.
