Thanks Tim and Ted:
I currently program in C++ on NT and am familiar with the
procedure outlined. I don appreciate the tips however.
This procedure will be good enough for testing on my desktop
pc until I get my feet a little wetter with rebol.
Maybe I jumped the gun before testing FTP and CGI features,
but this is what I eventually want to be able to do:
1)Automatically (without user input) update a file via
ftp. From my PC at home. Haven't done this before, I think
rebol is the media for this.
2)Read/write files on web server via CGI. I do this all
the time using executables compiled in C, but I think that
rebol may be a better media in may cases.
