When you only want one result from a script or block, use 'do.
When you want many results from a script or block, use 'reduce.

Hi Bob,
A) do works when you only want to load a single object. It's like saying:
do [make object! [word: 'something]]
which - of course - returns a single object, namely the last object (and
here only object) found in the block (returned by load), and not a block
containing all objects that we
It may help to write a little test program, like this:
>> write %trim.r {
{[
{rebol []
{write %text.txt mold system/script/args
{]
{}
and view the contents of %test.txt. Given the example of:
rebol -swq trim.r file1.in file2.out
I get:
"file1.in file2.out"

I think select and paths should come close to what you're asking:
for instance:

== "this is a"
>> select [ a "this is a" b "this is b" ] 'b
== "this is b"

Interesting enough, under Win95 system/script/args did contain the command
line args!
Actually, they both worked! They both contained the same arguments.

I tested it on my machine (running Win95) and it worked as advertised, i.e.
the arguments were available under system/script/args as a string.
What did you expect would happen? Perhaps the problem is with trim.r?

system/script/args is only for arguments passed with DO/ARGS.
system/options/args is for arguments passed from the command

The example below reads a web page of alternating headlines and
associated stories. If the same headline appears on a later scan
the story is ignored. It saves elements parsed from the webpage
as an array (block) of structs (object!s).
It cannot seem to restore them cleanly when rerun later.

If you are running the script under a copy of REBOL that you control, you
can use

hello,
I am unsure if I understand your question but here goes ...
At the current time there is no way to run an external program from within
rebol, hence you cannot create an "at" command.
If you are asking about how to use the NT "at" command to launch rebol at
specific times then this is pos
