The idea would be for the program to check the View archive on the experimental page once a day to see if it's changed, and if so, update View then.

[REBOL] Re: clean-path
Right. I see what you mean. Perhaps the more frequent use of clean-path on a URL is this. We'll talk about it the next time we meet about /Core fixes/enhancements/etc. The only issue may be that we would be breaking code that relied on the current behavior... how much of that there is I can't say. The slider does not update on the text list unless you tell it to. I use the following function in my code to update text-list sliders every time I mod the list. The function refers to list/lc. lc is a word in a text-list face that is the number of visible lines of the list. ; updates the bar on the side of a text-list or group of text-lists fix-slider: func [faces [object! block!]] [ foreach list to-block faces [ either 0 = length? list/data [list/sld/redrag 1] [ list/sld/redrag list/lc / length? list/data] ] ] This way I can make changes to one or more text-lists in a layout, fix the sliders, and then re-show the needed faces.

From: Jamey Cribbs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [REBOL] A word to all novice port programmers Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2000 15:41:48 -0400 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.0.29] X-archive-position: 43 X-original-sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This message goes out to all you who, like me, are novices when it comes to using ports to communicate between your Rebol script and other programs. I am in the process of learning Rebol. I have been writing some small applications that use text files to store any data needed. Because Core does not allow you to run system commands and because I do not yet have much experience using ports to communicate, I thought that I would have to wait until I purchased Command or someone wrote a script that connected Core to MySQL (or the like) via ports. Then I found MDBMS (www.hinttech.com). This is a very small, simple DBMS written by a guy named Marty Bochane. Basically, you start it up on a Linux box, then you can communicate to it interactively using telnet. But, wait, it gets better. MDBMS has a little utility called FOP (Fast Opendatabase Protocol). FOP allows you to open a port (default 2224) to your MDBMS database and interact with it via simple ASCII strings terminated by newlines. Using FOP, I was able to very easily open up a port while in Rebol, send sql queries to my MDBMS database, and receive the result set. It was so cool! Here I was, a guy who knows VERY little about port programming, basically building a client/server app in less than 30 minutes. I know that this will be very mundane, basic stuff to the people on this list that have a lot of port programming experience. But, if you are a novice like me, this might be a way to get your feet wet in this subject. I know I am already learning a lot. I guess this is also a testament to Rebol's incredible knack for making things easy to do. The ability you have to easily open, read from, and write to ports is incredible!

Hi Jamey, this looks really exciting. Porting the Linux versions of /Core and /View should be quite straightforward since Linux 2.4 and XFree are supported. Let's hope RT jumps on board.

[REBOL] MySql<>Rebol, NEED experienced people
No clue about socket communications. Unfortunately, without compatibility the next best choice would PHP instead of REBOL. However, I have not much of clue about PHP other than basic dabbling. For an upcoming project I need (all negotiable): 1. A SQL expert (stock options/pay) 2. A PHP or REBOL expert (stock options/pay) 3. Someone who knows how to link between the two. (stock options/pay) I do not want to pay the licensing fees for Oracle, since they are currently prohibitive. So my database choices come down to MySql, Interbase or Cache. I have spoken a bit with 1 person thru this list who is working on Rebol 2 Cache 2 Rebol interfacing. Although I am currently more comfortable with MySql and I know the need is great for Rebol 2 MySql capability. Might be willing to open source the whole interface project after I get a working version for my internal needs (that would be a paying job), if I could some people involved. Please let me know if you are interested in this and who can assist. Thanks!

[REBOL] Re: Which PDA for Rebol?
Keep your eyes out for a PDA from a company called Agenda. It supposedly runs a version of Linux. From the pictures on the website, it looks just like a Palm Pilot. I'm not sure about View, but my guess would be that a version of Core could run on it without too much modification from RT. It is supposed to start shipping in January, ranging in price from $149 - $249. I've already told my wife thats what I want for my birthday in Feburary! Jamey.

[REBOL] Re: clean-path
The main reason that URLs are not translated by clean-path is basically that you do not really know what directory transaltion is in effect on the contacted site. Take FTP as an example: read ftp://user1:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/readme.txt This file will most likely reside in /home/user1/readme.txt. Now lets say that user1 has shared their directory and this file for others to read. So user2 wants to get it: read ftp://user2:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/../user1/readme.txt This will work because the "root" directory that is specified by ftp://user2:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ is actually in /home/user2/. The problem with cleaning the URL is this: clean-path ftp://user2:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/../user1/readme.txt would come out as: ftp://user2:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/user1/readme.txt which is clearly not right. Some FTP servers will not allow you to back out of your home directory but some do. The point is that we don't know so we leave it open and do no translation.

[REBOL] REBOL/View for commercial products
I hope some guy at RT can give us an answer on this... I know this is something that has been already discussed, so forgive me if it is annoying for you. I have been contacted to develop a couple of programs that could be easily (and quickly!) done using REBOL/View (I'll need some hack to print etc., but that is a secondary issue); I'd really hate to do them in C++ or even worse Java. The problem is: I cannot give to a costumer a program that will expire. This problem has been stated already by a lot of people here, and I think it really needs a solution! I know that RT is busy now and can't give a date for /View 1.0. But I'd be happy to be able to use the current version, even if it contains bugs. It's easier to work around a bug in REBOL than to code in other languages. So my question is: would it be possible to *BUY* (at a reasonable price) a version of REBOL/View (without support etc.) that does not expire? I think my costumer would *REALLY* be interested in REBOL/View because it could cut their costs substantially, so they are very likely to invest money and time in this technology; but they are also in need to develop some applications ASAP... PLEASE, I'd need an answer ASAP.

[REBOL] Accessing the Windows Registry from Rebol/Command
I suppose that since no one has replied to any of my inquiries about this that I might be the only one interested in how to access the Windows Registry from Rebol/Command. But I'll post this anyway to possibly help out others some day. Bo/RT had said that I could access the registry using the Win32 API. But he didn't provide any specifics and after much struggling with Advapi32.dll I've given up. There seems to be some trouble either with the routine! datatypes passed to these particular API structures, or with the way Windows wants to modify these values and pass them back to Rebol, or perhaps it's due to my own ignorance of the proper implementation. Either way, Rebol/Command always crashed on me when I attempted this. But I haven't had any problems at all with the Rebol/Command shell interface, so I've decided to take another approach. There is an excellent, and very small (11 kb), Windows executable from the Cygwin collection (http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/) called regtool.exe that allows reading and writing to and from the registry using the command line. It's very simple to use Rebol/Command to call this executable to access the registry and to return the results back to Rebol. I realize that this type of work defies the cross-platform philosophy of Rebol, but in order for Rebol to be a practical solution to my everyday scripting needs, I have to be able to play outside the Rebol "sandbox". Now if only I could build a Rebol/View GUI front end to a Rebol/Command script, so that I could access external applications from View. Anybody at RT working on this?

Maybe it can.
If you look at a trace/net of

you can see (many of):
Net-log: "HTTP/1.1 302 Found"
URL Parse: none none www.nbci.com none none none

Net-log: {GET / HTTP/1.0
Accept: */*
Connection: close
User-Agent: REBOL 0.10.38.3.1
Host: members.nbci.com
Extracting the above www.nbci.com is a little bit more complicated
than just operating the same as local paths but we should at least
try, hey?
Anyway, local paths can lead to trouble too, can't they?
What about symbolic links and volumes mounted as /blah
in unix-land? eg. /usr/../../ Where does that take you?
(Is that a bad example?)
So I still think it should be reported.

[REBOL] Re: with ?
Hi Anton,
try
with: func [object [object!] block [block!] ] [
foreach [word value] block [
set in object to word! :word value
]
]
>> o: make object! [a: none b: none]
>> probe o
make object! [
a: none
b: none
]
>> with o [a: "this is a." b: "this is b."]
== "this is b."
>> probe o
make object! [
a: "this is a."
b: "this is b."
]
Note that this will generate an error if you pass a word in block that
does not exist in object.
A safer approach:
with: func [object [object!] block [block!] ] [
foreach [word value] block [
if in object to word! :word [
set in object to word! :word value
]
]
]
This version silently skips all words in block that are not defined in
object.
Hope this helps,
