[REBOL] Re: Euro and German currency
Hi Andrew, here comes some info from a German. There might be some official guidelines where to put the euro-sign in a currency format, but in real life it doesn't matter if it is in front or behind the amount. Important is the "." as delimiter for thousands and "," as decimal delimiter. Sometimes we use EUR for the Euro when the is not available (price labels). As we have the euro as the only legal currency, the German Mark is only useful for historical circumstances (as said before Note: Your quotation is right).

[REBOL] ANN: Rebol/flash dialect updated
Hello rebol-list, I've done some imoprtant changes in my Rebol/Flash dialect again - fixed Sprite building recursion bug - add small support to be able compile FlashMX files as well (the Flash MX is mainly improved in the ActionScript so it was not such a problem) There are also some new examples... http://oldes.multimedia.cz/swf/ PS: If someone know specification of the compressed FlashMX files, I would love to know it...

Sorry for very late reply (I was not connected yet)
Exam-swf.r script is not just one function but more functions. The
main is the 'exam-swf
so if you have the script loaded :
>> do %exam-swf.r
>> exam-swf
SWF file:new.swf
Searching the binary file... swf size: 56 bytes
-
make object! [
version: 5
length: 56
frame-size: [0 6400 0 6400]
frame-rate: 60
frame-count: 1
]
setBackgroundColor(9): 153.165.139
DoAction Tag(12):
ActionPush #{006163636F756E7400} ["account"]
ActionGetVariable #{1C} #{}
ActionPush #{006E616D6500} ["name"]
ActionGetMember #{4E} #{}
ActionDelete #{3A} #{}
END of ActionRecord #{00} #{}
showFrame(1):
end(0):

I've updated the file now (because I was improving it a little bit to
show some FlashMX tags properly) and add /quiet switch so the
informations are not printed byt just swf object is returned:
>> exam-swf/quiet
SWF file:new.swf
>> probe swf
make object! [
header:
make object! [
version: 5
length: 56
frame-size: [0 6400 0 6400]
frame-rate: 60
frame-count: 1
]
rect: none
data: [[9 3 #{99A58B}] [12 25
#{96096163636F756E74001C96066E616D65004E3A00}] [1 0 #{}] [0 0 #{}]]
]
>>
You may see that there are the Flash tags as block in the swf/data so
you may work with them as for example:
>> parse-ActionRecord swf/data/2/3
ActionPush #{006163636F756E7400} ["account"]
ActionGetVariable #{1C} #{}
ActionPush #{006E616D6500} ["name"]
ActionGetMember #{4E} #{}
ActionDelete #{3A} #{}
END of ActionRecord #{00} #{}
But these functions are done to just print informations, not to return
pure data (I've modified some of the functions to also return the data
in the %exam-swf-mod.r that replaces some of the parsing functions
(this is not complete yet) There is still a lot of thinks, that should be
fixed or improved.

[REBOL] Re: File analysis
Hello COFFRE, I'm really interested, do I understand it well, that you just want to write some simple parser that will join the function name to the propper code? I would like to try the Action Script Viewer at home (where to download it)... for some more exploration you can use my exam-swf.r script (it's part of the Rebol/Flash dialect zip archive at http://oldes.multimedia.cz/swf/) My script is not perfect because it's not complete yet and I use it just to hack the structure of my testing flash files, but may be usefull as well. cheers oldes -- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, without the quotes.

Yes, you are right Bolek, I need it for converting hexa RGB values in my
Rebol/Flash dialect (my first reason why to use issue datatype ever:).
I've reduced the problem just just for converting issue to binary
(because there is no problem to convert binary to proper tuple) and did some
quick test:
REBOL/VIEW
>> to-binary #234311
== #{323334333131}
>> issue-to-binary: func[clr ][load head insert tail insert next mold clr "{" "}"]
>> issue-to-binary #234311
== #{234311}
>> t1: now/precise loop 100 [issue-to-binary #234311] t2: now/precise t2/time -
>t1/time
== 0:00:07.08
>> issue-to-binary: func[clr ][load head insert tail insert head form clr "#{" "}"]
>> t1: now/precise loop 100 [issue-to-binary #234311] t2: now/precise t2/time -
>t1/time
== 0:00:07.32
>> issue-to-binary: func[clr ][load rejoin ["#{" form clr "}"]]
>> t1: now/precise loop 100 [issue-to-binary #234311] t2: now/precise t2/time -
>t1/time
== 0:00:16.604
>> ;with the Brett's debase patch
>> t1: now/precise loop 100 [issue-to-binary #234311] t2: now/precise t2/time -
>t1/time
== 0:00:26.608
>> ;without the patch -> CRASH
So although my solution looks like more complicated, it's much more
faster. The problem is in the DEBASE - Debase is native but with a bug
inside so it's useless:-(

[REBOL] Align bytes in the new Rebols
Hello rebol-list,
writing my previous post about the bug in the debase, I've
recalled one thing I would like to see in the new Rebol versions
>> ;now using
>> debase/base "1100" 2
== #{FC}
>> ;but:
>> debase/base "11" 2
== none
>> ;so what about something like:
>> debase/base/align "11" 2
== #{FC}
Of course in the native debase function, so I would not have to use my
own byte-align functions as:
byte-align: func[bits [string!] /local p][
p: (length? bits) // 8
if p > 0 [insert/dup tail bits #"0" 8 - p]
bits
]
>> debase/base byte-align "11" 2
== #{FC}
