You could do that with a temp object and RESOLVE as is, if need be.

You have a GUI?
BrianH

Carl, we've been seeing this dup thing happening sometimes lately. 
Ladislav gets them too.
Carl

They have different timestamps.
Updated the doc again, adding above. Hit F5.

You might want to add the rest of the R2/Forward additions to the 
list for 2.7.8 too, with checkmarks.

2.7.8 additions from R2/Forward: RESOLVE, CD, MORE, LS, PWD, RM, 
MKDIR, SINGLE?, COLLECT-WORDS, INVALID-UTF?, and some compatibility 
fixes to ASCII? and LATIN1?.
Those can be added to the list.
Carl

adding...
BrianH

[1287x2]
Though they don't need an entry each. One for the additions, one 
for the fixes.
The 2.7.7 R2/Forward stuff is here: http://www.rebol.com/cgi-bin/blog.r?view=0447#comments

updated above, but left off mkdir... isn't make-dir close enough?
BrianH

It's just for compatibility with R3. It doesn't really need to be 
there either.
Carl
26-Mar-2010
[1291]
ahh... did it sneak into R3?
BrianH
26-Mar-2010
[1292]
Yeah. You added it.
Carl
26-Mar-2010
[1293]
my fault. ;)
BrianH

[1294]
And doesn't help me at all, because my DOS background makes me type 
MD instead :(
Carl

[1295]
ok, I've got to go find some food... but will return in a while to 
do a trial build with most of this done.


BTW, still missing the fixes Graham made to HTTP. He mentioned it 
the other day.
BrianH

I'll remove MKDIR from the mezzanine source in DevBase.
Carl
26-Mar-2010
[1297]
(I thought I added his fixes a few years ago... but perhaps they 
were removed due to a problem, not sure.)
BrianH

[1298]
You should really go over the updates there soon. There are fixes 
to R2 and R3.
Carl
26-Mar-2010
[1299]
what?
BrianH
26-Mar-2010
[1300]
In DevBase.
Carl

[1301]
The old one or new one?
BrianH
26-Mar-2010
[1302x2]
The new. You've been in GUI doc hell, and not noticed it.
Can I put in the EXTRACT fix before you release 2.7.8?
Carl
26-Mar-2010
[1304x4]
Ah, ok. Will look there. Whew! You had me thinking that the old DevBase 
was still running.
yes
compatible, right?
Ok, thanks for the help digesting all this. Stuff that's done can 
be merged. Fortunately, some thinks like UNBIND are "done" because 
they are very close in R3.

False and unset were being considered to be default values. Given 
that, noone would have intentionally put those values in their blocks.
If I had one more wish for a native, it would be ASSERT.
Carl
26-Mar-2010
[1310x2]
Ok.
BBL
BrianH
26-Mar-2010
[1312]
It will only be used if it's native, and the mezzanine ASSERT/type 
doesn't work for paths.

Carl "BTW, still missing the fixes Graham made to HTTP. He mentioned 
it the other day ..."


Yes, I keep saying where they are and you keep asking .. so I have 
to track you down to tell you lol.  

Wouldn't it be easier if registered chat users could add to a comment 
page for every page on rebol.com ??  Then nothing would be lost.

Who's the current networking expert ?
BrianH
26-Mar-2010
[1317]
Doc and Maarten know this stuff. Probably Gabriele too.
Graham

[1318x2]
None of whom are active in this area
is active
BrianH
26-Mar-2010
[1320]
Are they active in any other REBOL forum?
Graham

[1321]
area = rebol2 networking 
and not forum
BrianH
26-Mar-2010
[1322x2]
Oh, I thought you meant here. And Doc writes a web server and networking 
protocols, Maarten has written a HTTP client (at least), and Gabriele 
has written other networking stuff. They're active.
EXTRACT fix posted to DevBase #7122.

Thanks Graham.


(Also, we will be adding comment sections to the pages of the website 
soon.)
