World: r4wp

Typed in a simple func and that also crashes.

Graham and Adrian, incredible. I should look into right now but will 
probably wait my customary few years to rediscover your genius. Nice 
supportive words for Red Rebol in the Readme!

Gregg, the error is what it says. It needs to start with a Red [] 
header, just like when you run the compiler locally

Too used to tryrebol I guess. :-)

Kaj/Endo, so Red is case sensitive? I tried red [] but it only likes 
Red []. Nevertheless, that's very cool.

Oh, I just read Doc's post.

James: only the header is case-sensitive.

Thanks Doc.

Kaj, so not all bad news then :-)

Trying to light it up :-)

I know, and just when things like this happen there are a bunch of 
people who decide they want to use the site(s)..

I've postponed a Red article until this has blown over

Robert "saving potentials'" would normally be "potential savings"

Thx. Fixed.

That's great news on Android Robert! Congratulations to the Saphirion 
team.

Awesome news Robert.  Demo crashed after a bit of play:

** Script Error: event: needs a value
** Where: loop -apply- wait do-events
if view demo 
** near:  loop 8

Gregg, thanks. Corrected.

Nick, thanks for the report. As said it's a very early release but 
we wanted to let you play with it.

Nick, yup, this is know problem. The event handling is a bit unstable 
as I had not enough time for additional debugging before making the 
release (It's a "tax" to have the release now rather than wait one 
more week or so :-)). Will be sorted out in the next release.

Robert, Cyphre & team, thank you so much!

Really huge congrats on this guys.  I'm very excited - focused on 
selling Merchants' Village right now, so coding is on back burner, 
but will give every free moment to testing and documenting...

Thank you Saphirion and Cyphre.  Don't have an Android device at 
the moment (64 IOS devices).  But I will be taking after the next 
release.

Demo worked fine on my Android device without crashes, and I actually 
solved the puzzle!  Probably just got lucky.

...Except, sometimes the tiles didn't line up properly.

Have you run the test Bo?

Yes.  I ran the test and posted it.  (I'm assuming you mean the speed 
test.)

Thanks Bo for giving it a try. Yup, the tile game is a bit "buggy" 
even at the rebol script level as I wrote it around 3 or 4 AM on 
Friday night(or should I say Saturday morning? ;-)) I tried to quickly 
mimick the 'swipe' gesture but it is not perfect at all. Let's see 
if I can improve it in the new release...or maybe anyone here could 
write simple game in R3 even on Windows that will use the DOWN, UP 
and MOVE mouse events the way so it is fun on touch screen? We can 
embedd it in the new release as a bonus or if there are more demos 
we can create simple menu where you can download it and have fun...anyone? 
;-)

Robert and the Team: great work !

MaxV, same question to you: why don't you just use the rebol.net 
wiki ?

www.rebol.net is not a wiki

Look closer: http://rebol.net/wiki/

If you intend http://www.rebol.net/wiki/Main_Pageon  www.rebol.net 
is wrote to not use it, because is the "old" wiki. The new wiki should 
be http://www.rebol.com/r3/docs/index.htmlbut it's closed to new 
authors, and there isn't any new contributon for years.  

On the other side all rebol developers work on GitHub, so it''s all 
ready to use.

Last update to the r3/docs/ Wiki was on 2013-02-27.

Please don't be stuck on old projects, rise new ones!  If you want 
to copy the wiki on githu, just fork the project and also all the 
wiki will be your. This way the project will continue to live forever 
:-)

Adnreas, if you can't change main www.rebol.net page, new uesers 
will never look at that wiki

There's an issue about that.

As usual... However GitHub avoid every issues, so where is the problem?

True, your GitHub wiki isn't linked to on rebol.net at all :)

Neither as "old Wiki" nor in any other way.

In any case, you might find my attempts at a CMake-based build useful, 
as I explicitly list the `make prep` scripts and their dependencies 
there:

https://github.com/earl/r3/blob/wip-cmake/CMakeLists.txt#L109

Finally some positivity! Thank you!

MaxV, there's lot of informations on rebol.net wiki that aren't available 
anywhere else. I'd like to improve the page that exists rather than 
starting new project.

Max, many of us consider more useful to improve rebol.net wiki.

I know that your wiki is your child but please consider moving it 
to the main Rebol wiki.
I would help you if you want.

I don't consider rebol.informe.com my child, on the contrary it is 
totaly open to everybody.  I never used www.rebol.net/wiki becuase 
it is outdated, the last big additions are of 2010.  I tried to use 
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/REBOL_Programming(more than 750 contributions)), 
then I switched to rebol.inform.com in order to maintain a unique 
place for the rebol community.  With a single account you have forum, 
wiki, images gallery and blog.

Let me know what's missing on rebol.informe.com, and I'll copy there 
in few days.

Kaj, sounds like great progress.

Robert, Woohoo!

Great work both on Red & R3/Droid!!

R3 droid is a nice work. Hope to see it with nice GUI elements.

MaxV: we apreciate your work but I personally prefer a MediaWiki 
page because upgrading the engine we will have true international 
language support.
