World: r3wp

its possible that the window stores its active state in the flags 
block, if this is the case could also tl

that would happen from mezzanine code?

... could also loop thru all faces in screen-face/pane.    but I 
don't know if view actually stores the active state anywhere.

adding the event handler is very easy from mezz code.  its basically 
like a detect function, but executed at the screen level.   the face 
you receive is a window.

IIRC its executed within do event (so its run from within the wake-event).


if you are already patching view's wake-event, that would be another 
place to put it.

RIM.r script on rebol.org (RIM - REBOL Instant Messenger) crashes 
the REBOL process on Windows (R2)
http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=rim.r&sid=hhim88gr

Worked for me when I used it .. have you tried a version of rebol 
from when the script was written?

Nope, I tried only with R2/view 2.7.8.3.1
But I found the crashed part, on line 251:

face/text: bud: pick users count  ;crash!, PICKing from users is 
ok, setting face/text crashes.

users is a block of something strange:
users/1 == <script type="text/javascript"> <!--
    top.location="http://www.reboltech.com/?fp=BSODCy... 


I think something changed on the server and return value is not a 
text anymore, so setting it to face/text lead to crash.

Another crash I found:
get-modes system/ports/system 'port-modes
others don't crash: 'network-modes, 'file-modes, 'copy-modes

no crash here WinXP, Rebol 2.7.8

Strange, I tried several times on my XP/Home it crashed everytime. 
But no crash on my XP/Pro.

As admin?

Yes as Admin on both.

Anyone happen to have a copy of  the self modifying program I wrote 
in REBOL years ago?  The one tht displays itself, and then lets you 
modify itself?

what is the generic name for such program already ?

A program that displays itself is a quine.
Some in the library, but none from Reichart
    www.rebol.org/search.r?find=quine

No, I did not put it in the lib, although I think Greg may have done 
another version of what I wrote and submitted it.

John too played with it and did something as well.  It is not a big 
deal, I can rewrite it , was just hoping to have the original, I 
might still have it somewhere.

The quines in the library are string-based. That is not how the scripts 
in Rebol should look, as the documentation suggests. There were other 
sources of REBOL quines, I remember putting a couple of quines somewhere 
too, but it seems, that the corresponding pages have been either 
taken down or "cleaned" by some zealot.

If it's me "John", then I don't remember atm. If it comes back, I'll 
say so.

Reichart, I think I wrote one of those. (I think we were talking 
here, and I threw something together so that we could play with it.)

Maybe I have it in some old archive. Let me know if I should search.

Didn't turn it up here.

Some quines were posted to the mailing list

Maybe the ones in question were on earlier incarnations of this world

Nothing relevant in my copy of the original REBOL world, nor its 
short-lived sucessor REBOL2,

Nothing obvious on the Mailing list archive -- that goes back to 
mid-2000 which, I think, predates Reichart's involvement with REBOL.

Rechart's involvement with Rebol predates Rebol ! lol

Nice !

p: 0x0 img: make image! [200x200]

loop 100000 [poke img p red p: (pick [100x0 0x200 200x200] random

Very nice!
