shadwolf- this is announce group, no unnecessary chatter here, there 
is an ann-reply group  .....

if you have troubles with REBOL/View 2.7.8 on (stock) Ubuntu 11.04: 
install the xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi packages, and restart 
your GUI session afterwards

That's standard for many Linux distros, so apparently nothing new 
here

http://www.microchip.com/en_US/family/mplabx/index.html
MicroChip came out with a crossplatform IDE (after ~10+ years)
It's in Java and 37MB zipped.
Another opportunity missed where Rebol could have excelled...

Official REBOL / Red User Group in north of France the 28th of may 
2011
Cht'i RUG 2011 will took place at Zango restaurant in Lille.
Lunch and meeting in the afternoon.

Official topic on REBOL France site : 

http://www.rebol-france.org/actualites/chtirugmai2011


The author of Cheyenne and Red programming language will be present.

The author of the most famous books about Rebol Olivier Auverlot 
will also be present.

Release new linux packages, work on Ubuntu 11.04: http://www.maxvessi.net/rebsite/Linux/

I wrote a quick quick quide to using Fossil with my repositories:

http://rebol.esperconsultancy.nl/documentation/how-to-use-Fossil.html

I've updated my REBOL website and overhauled the 0MQ bindings documentation 
to incorporate the Fossil infrastructure:

On Thursday I'm giving a Pecha Kucha about Rebol at the Karlsruher 
Entwicklertag (Karlsruhe's Developer Day). So, I have 20 slides, 
each 20 seconds giving me 6:40 minutes to present Rebol.


http://www.andrena.de/Entwicklertag/2011/Programm/Conference-Day/Innovationen-in-IT/REBOL.html

Let me know your topics you would present to a techie audience, where 
mostly none ever heard about Rebol. There are about 600 people expected.

-Parsing, one line client/servers, DSLs

One line client / servers?

Robert - get Carl on the Skype online during the session, that will 
attract the audience :-)

Github open sourced their language highlighting/recognition tool 
two days ago. I just submitted a patch to disambiguate .r files between 
R and REBOL:

https://github.com/github/linguist/pull/20


I'm quite optimistic that this will get integrated in one way or 
the other. So somewhen in the future we should have proper syntax 
highlighting and language statistics for (.r-using) REBOL projects 
on Github.

wow! they already did?
that nice. thanks earl!

Success! REBOL is now a language correctly recognised by Github. 
That also includes their per-language stats:

https://github.com/languages/Rebol

That's cool!

Awesome :)

just as carl appears to be abandoing Rebol!  ironic timing.

Wow, there are three languages less popular

wow C (not C++) is still the fourth language on github... If you 
poked around in most programming shops, everyone whould say C is 
dead.  :-)

chemists and physicists are both in science but do not use the same 
tools

IMO C is coming back. Simple, matured, works.

hmm

It probably comes back, but I find it too easy to make mistakes in.
Pro is also, it's fast at execution.
Good libraries might help with the mistakes.

(Should have been in Ann-Reply, sorry.)

Rebol plugin: 
you can visit: http://www.maxvessi.net/rebsite/plugin/index.html

to test if it works, tha pages contain some scripts. If you want, 
I can adder more...

Great !
Tested under Opera.

Windows, W7

working in firefox, w7

How is this different than http://re-bol.com/rebol.html#section-9.11
?

very nice, I tested it under XP/Pro with Opera 10.50.
please see the Plugin-2 group.

Dear NickA, now with HTML5 it's easier put "strange" plugins inside 
html page with the <embed> element, just paste something like:
<embed name="REBOL_Moz" type="application/x-rebol-plugin-v1"
WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="400" 
ALT="REBOL/Plugin"
bgcolor="#ffffff"
version="1.2.0"
LaunchURL="http://www.rebol.com/view/demos/bubbles.r"
></embed>

It works on Chrome, WindowsXP

also on Safari

FF 5.x, Windows Vista,OK

WinXP Pro works with Chrome/Opera/FF but not IE

Has anyone tried following means of running nstype plugins in IE 
>5.5 SP2? https://developer.mozilla.org/en/ActiveX_Control_for_Hosting_Netscape_Plug-ins_in_IE

I posted some demo video on youtube:

Pot vidoes about Rebol you too! :-)

Rebolide, the rebol IDE for beginner, now has the cross-platform 
rebol core viewer!!!

Facebook is changing the groups, so probably the Rebol group will 
be archived or whatever Mark Zuckerberg wants.
So I copied all posts and the "weekly" emails in a blog:
http://rebol2.blogspot.com/
You'll find there almost anything. :-)

What does it means that is changing the groups?

(sorry... answer in any other chat group)
