Hi Anton,
I just ran REBOL/View from my REBOL home directory to test the
default install behavior. I was able to rename rebol.exe to
another file name (blah.bak) and then write out a random file
downloaded from a remote web site to a file named rebol.exe .
You don't have to delete the file for th
I just tried opening a copy of my rebol.exe,
named rebolblah.exe and within the rebol console
to delete %rebolblah.exe.
This produces a write access error.
As far as I know you can't modify a running executable.
That's on WindowsXP.
I can't remember if Win9x allows that. Anyone ?
Anton.

Hi Brian,
Thanks very much! It would be really terrific if you could do your
review and coordinate a couple other volunteers (anyone willing?) then
give us a ping when you think it's ready.
I'll also take any input you have as I'm working on an installer
project, and I do have the SDK.
Thanks a

Excellent info Brian,
Can we add it to REBOL.org somewhere (with due credit of course)?
If people think that would be a good thing, could a couple other
people review it as well?
Thanks!

Hi Ari!
You've run into a problem that tripped me up for a while:
REBOL doesn't put its data in the proper places on Windows
2000 and above - in other words, it is not "logo-compliant".
REBOL's default install puts its program file and data files
in a directory under Program Files. Since Windows

Perhaps it was an issue with the desktop
link having its "Start in:" field set to
a wrong directory ?
(I just tested it, and it shows the bad behaviour.)

I am using latest View beta 1.2.46 without using
a HOME variable. (I see it in the registry though,
don't know how old it is).
I have my rebview1246031.exe and all the other versions
in the same directory, which works just fine.
The user.r is executed no problem.
You are right, though, if a home

what you are looking for is: REBOL_HOME
I *THINK* Rebol puts more importance to this than system home.
