World: r3wp

Back from training course. Read new VID message from  ML on my cellphone 
:-) I was very surprised, that nearly at the end of R2 lifestyle, 
where RebGUI is the king, something like that is coming.

I will be realistic - have not studied the styles yet, but from the 
style browser, I am very disappointed by the look :-( It really looks 
like Amiga 1.3, 25 yars old. Or some very old Unix. Who uses such 
plain buttons and field, with so basic borders? Or is there any skin 
system attached?


As for completness, still the most complete add-on kit for R2 VID 
is some 6 years or more old Romano Paolo Tenca's one - tabbing, grid, 
etc. supported ...

Pekr, read the docs.

Romano's kit was GPL ... had drag and drop between styles but no 
one could use it with that license.

Cyphre systray: great news!

Agreed.... this is the type of thing that gets people to use REBOL 
more.

I proposed to speed-up REBOL developments by bounty system, like 
Amiga or other communities had. I think this might be a great idea 
.... simply put - I would like to have LDAP protocol? OK, maybe community 
gathers enough money, so that e.g. Softinnov can pick-it up, and 
does not need to work for free necessarily ...

We need a site for this purpose (Rebol bounty hunters)...
Who can do that ?
Hum, bad idea because we need this site to build this site.

Pekr, can you show us a site like that ?

Pekr, I was thinking about that since a long time, but never proposed 
it due to the small size of the community...

Found one: http://www.amigabounty.net/

i got the name: Rebol bounty hunters ;-)

Let's start a bounty to build the bounty site...

This is better - you can see even particular bounties - http://bounties.morphzone.org/

If you do this, do it in (or with) other language sites....REBOL 
is also sadly elitist......a little blending, and being “part of 
the crowd” would be nice too....

The Rebol community is small .. but they still have money!

Maybe Popper (David May) can start the first bounty for a GUI for 
video processing!

That is a great idea!

Pekr, et. al, how do you use that tray.r?

Cyphre should upload some examples, till that time, you are on your 
own. I don't use the SW myself ....

Thx.

how to create threads in REBOL?

I wrote this code

rebol[]
;------------------


system/words/&: func [

  "Return the memory address of a binary, string or struct as a binary 
  value"
		b [binary! string! struct!]
	][

  to-integer reverse  third make struct! [s [string!]] reduce [either 
  struct? b [third b][b]]
	]


;----------

  integer: make struct! [
        value   [integer!]
    ] none

;-------------------


kernel32: load/library %kernel32.dll


CreateThread:  make routine! [ 

pThreadAttributes [integer!] 

dwStackSize[integer!] 

lpStartAddress [callback [int  return: [int]]]

lpParameter[integer!] 

dwCreationFlags[integer!] 

 lpThreadId [integer!] 

 return: [integer! ] ] kernel32"CreateThread"

;----------

i: 0


thread:   func  [ n ][  i: i + 1   ]  

;-----------------

loop 10 [  
print t: CreateThread 0 0 :thread  0 0  & integer
wait 0.1
print i
]
halt

as I add features until the thread does not works

if i change "thread:   func  [ n ][  i: i + 1    ] " on "thread: 
  func  [ n ][  for m 1 10 1 []  i: i + 1    ]  "

this code not work

Alan, "integrated" is the correct spelling.

I think you need to thumbnail those images .. they're just not downloading 
for me.

What is FNDY ??

Something to do with fire fighting?

FDNY  New York City Fire Department

images download fast here but I'm sure you are right..they are full 
size.

Yeah .. you need to thumbnail them.

Use imagemagick or something ...

My server seems to be crawling right now...don't know why. Usually 
flys

check the server logs

maybe a bot is crawling your site

do you have a robots.txt file?

No, I just threw it up...noit ready for prime time yet

google will crawl your site if you have the google toolbar

google toolbar?

now that I have visited ... google knows about your site

Oh, Tool bar in your browser...really?

So if I have the bar in my browser I can visit my own sites to get 
them goolge aware?

I think so

intergrated fixed..thanks. I've missed that same typo before

Server is still slow but it might be my internet connection as another 
computer running at the same location is also super slow....unless 
my bandwidth is getting eaten up with server access...an attack??
I cannot get into the server to check the logs..

Server logs looked light - low traffic- so it must have been a slow 
connection...working fine now

nice stuff Chris.
