To run my solution I simply make a bash that tests if festival is 
yet running or not and then runs it (I'm using 1.2.1 REbol version 
for linux ...) and then runs my GUI software ;)
I'm working on a text to speech processor that could use MBROLA  
as  engine ASCII TEXT would be converted to PHO mbrola phonetic describtion 
file. Of course using rebol/view  1.3
 :)
I think parse would do a trully great job for this  kind of rebol 
software
ARG REBOL/VIEW 1.3.1  doesn't freely support run function ...

Was it 'run? What about 'call?
'run is supposed to start associated app to particular file suffix, 
isn't it? Dunno how associations are supposed to work in Linux?

As I don't use it often I always forget the name of this function

OSX supports call, as far as I can see

Hi, all: anyone has succeeded to run the beta version of View 1.3 
on Fedora Core 4? I have the following error: error while loading 
shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: 
No such file or directory

Nope, i have been directkly to the build...
solved by doing: ln -s /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.5 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5

This is weird... rebol (1.2 and 1.3) can not connect to the internet 
with Fedora Core 4, but i have no problem with Debian 3.1... I think 
i will get rid off Fedora Core and keep Debian!!
Now it works...

why v5 - usually its easier to add an old library which the distro 
once had than to install a new one which the distro not has yet.
thats what my link was about. bitdefender had the same problem, and:
SOLUTION:

Fedora Core 4 has gcc 4.0 that provides libstdc++.so.6 while BitDefender 
requires another version of this library, libstdc++.so.5. In order 
to satisfy this dependency, the compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.fc4.i386 
package must be installed. (you can find it on the distribution CDs)

Hi everyone,
I have a problem running the new view beta on suse 9.3.

I have libstdc++ 5, I can run rebol scripts (that need 1.3), but 
I can't start the desktop (I double-click the rebol icon, it just 
flashes -starts and stops immediatky-).
I'm new to Linux so this might be a known issue. 

I tried moving the VM to various places but same result at every 
try.
Maybe someone can help ?

Francois a very good linux distribution is ubuntu ;)

Jonathan, try to launch rebol from the console rather than by double-clicking 
on the icon. Also, make sure you launch rebol from a place you have 
write access. For example, i installed rebol within /opt/rebol-cmd/bin 
but I do not have write access on this folder. So, from my home folder, 
i launch rebol like this: /opt/rebol-cmd/bin/rebview
Shad, Ubuntu is debian based... So why have a copy when you can have 
the real thing ;-)

François: thanks. One of Rebolinth's posts in the RAMBO group solved 
my problem (startup issues).

is there any good reason why this group is private? new users (like 
Joe) won't be able to find it.

I think you can make it public, no reason for the group with such 
generic name to be private, no? :-)

Oops, did not notice that when i dotted it up. I see no reason for 
private too, except someone is hirrified by linux.
done.

Francois not a copy a different package  ...
debian is not packaged the same as ubuntu and ubuntu as some more 
configuration I intsalled and administrated debian for dec Alpha 
Workstation for nearbie 4 years ;)
so if I say to you that ubuntu is very good then it's vry good 

For example my mom was tired to get lot of problems with her windows 
in installed 2 month ago ubuntu  I use synapse to get some  missing 
packages and now all works well she is very happy with her pc ... 
My mom is 62 years old and dislike coputing but ubuntu have her preference

curious distro is targeted by the Rebol/View linux build. I know 
compatibility is not an issue, just idle curiosity.
which distro

I need to prepare some installation instructions for our polish partner. 
I will do some scripts to access mySQL on their server, using rebol, 
but I will not have access to the site. So I want to be well prepared, 
so they don't get annoyed after writing them tens of times "try that, 
try this" etc. :-)
They use Debian. I have Fedora at home. What would I like to ask 
is - where to put rebol interpreter on Debian? Where to put things 
like user.r or mysql-protocol.r or whatever other script I produce 
to them? The path is almost always trouble for me. I e.g. start console 
and I have to define set-net once again, as it does not use my user.r 
settings etc. Any insights?
has latest beta core available shell access? I will not probably 
able to solve mySQL 4.0.1 charset conversions using mySQL commands, 
so I will use 'iconv utility .... need to convert by using externall 
tool, so I need shell access for that ...
thanks a lot ...
