Ironically, all it seems I have to do is post a question somewhere 
and then I find the answer on the internet.  I've been trying to 
figure that out for several days off and on.  Post the question, 
go back to the internet and then find the answer.  
Here it is:  system/script/args
its a string.
hope this helps someone else.

solution to this is to ask the question and then not go search the 
internet :)

system/script/args is a string. system/options/args is a block (or 
none).

hahah I didn't even know about   system/options/args

Hi guys, I have a question. I'm trying to use the Windows SDK with 
Wine on a linux computer. I get the following error message: "***ERROR 
(enter-data.r): File not found: /home/lat/r/sdk-w/mezz.r".  But that 
is the correct path to the file. So what is wrong?

That's a Linux path, so it probably doesn't work in the WINE environment

Kaj, thanks! I should have realized that obvious fact.

Kaj, thanks again. With your help I got it to work.

I have a problem with SDK on Windows. when I start rebcmd.exe it 
crashes immediately everytime, just after the REBOL/Command window 
appears.

And also when I encap a simple script using encmd.exe, the output 
file also crashes with REBOL Internal Error: Boot error: 316


Am I doing something wrong? I used drag & drop, interactive etc. 
modes.

And also when I encap with enface.exe or encmdview.exe, it works, 
but it says "layout has no value".

did you check your user.r or other files at startup?

there is no rebol.r or user.r in the encapsulator's folder.

did you include alll the view files?

if you didn't then you might not have layout

#include %source/view.r

Yes it worked when I include view.r, thank you. I just bought the 
SDK.

I'm still playing with it.

But still rebcmd.exe crashes immediately when I start it. I tried 
on XP Pro SP3 and XP Home SP3.

And the executable file produced by encmd.exe also crashes also with 
REBOL Internal Error: Boot error 316.
Can anyone confirm that?

which version of the sdk?  I don't have the latest and mine work 
fine.

There was a similar problem already reported
http://www.rebol.org/aga-display-posts.r?post=r3wp291x1570

Ok, it looks rebcmd crash problem apeeared in 2.7.7.3.1 and we need 
to wait for next SDK update. Won't be soon I think.

My SDK version is 2.7.7.3.1

Endo: if you bought the SDK recently, you should have the 2.7.8 version. 
From rebol.com home page: "REBOL/SDK 2.7.8 Released 9-Jan-2011"

I bought it just 2 days ago. But I think there is no SDK for 2.7.8.

When I click on "REBOL/SDK 2.7.8 Released 9-Jan-2011" link on rebol.com 
website it goes to http://www.rebol.com/sdk.htmland there is a message 
"We have posted the 2.7.7 SDK packages for a variety of platforms." 
A bit confusing. But there is just 2.7.7 on download page.

There is a SDK 2.7.8, it is just not publicly available. You need 
to ask RT for it (using the feedback form I guess) or stick with 
2.7.6 (which is the SDK version I am still using for production code). 
2.7.8 has its own issues, like the CALL/OUTPUT data corruption bug 
on Windows (http://www.rebol.net/cgi-bin/rambo.r?id=4416&).

Ok now I found the URL to download SDK 2.7.8. There is download URL 
for 2.7.7 in the email that RT send me when I purchase. I changed 
the url and find the 2.7.8.

But I got 404 not found when I try 2.7.6. I'll send a msg to RT. 
Thank you.

May I use my license file for all of them? 2.7.6 to 2.7.8, or do 
I need to request a new license file as well?

The same license file will work.

Ok, my license file works with 2.7.8 also. And rebcmd.exe does not 
crash. Executable compiled with encmd.exe also does not crash.

SDK v2.7.6 is available from here: http://www.rebol.net/builds/sdk/

Ok, thanks a lot!

You're welcome.

Are the source files for the Linux SDK the same as the source files 
for the Windows SDK?

Does anyone have a good system for developing using Linux, then compiling 
using the Windows SDK?

Which cmd or SDK version is the best using call/output on Win?

I suspect the answer will depend on which version of Windows you 
are using. If you use Nenad's call.r, you should be able to use any 
version.


It's available as part of the Cheyenne source - which can be downloaded 
from http://cheyenne-server.org/download.shtml

I was not aware that Nenads call also supports output. 
And indeed win-call/output was not working for me.

So far 2.7.5. 2.6.2, 2.5.6 and 2.5.125 is working for me, but the 
cmd window is annoying, especially as my calls take a long time.

I use win-call/output in the Red testing framework - it works on 
both Win/XP and Win/7 under REBOL 2.7.8

the only downside is that it can't be run under Core.

The best what I get with e.g >> win-call/output "dir"  str: make 
string! 1024  is  either "The operation completed successfully." 
and then an empty file with the name "call-error-695.log" and following 
"A file can not be created if it already exists."
But this problem probably belongs to cheyene e.a. .groups,.

The biggest issue with CALL on different versions is whether you 
use a version that requires /SHOW, which was added in newer releases 
and causes some compatibility issues. If your process works without 
showing the window, it shouldn't much matter (unless you go waaaayyy 
back).

Folks, I'd like to use encryption, to encrypt some json records and 
deploy it to the browser and decrypt it using this algorithm at  
http://www.fourmilab.ch/javascrypt/javascrypt.html

to do this, I need to encrypt my json records using Rebol in the 
server using 'crypt scheme. Do you have a cookbook to do this?

I tried the recipe but it's giving invalid port. I have SDK, license 
file, but it's not working.

I'd like to encrypt json text using Rebol and AES encryption. And 
decrypt this using javascript. Do you have any idea how to do this 
using Rebol. I mean the AES encryption. I mean : txt: "blablablba" 
 key: #CEDEFF.. encrypt  txt key   ...  using AES rhinjael algorithm 
.. thanks

If I use  encloak, I really don't know how to decrypt this using 
javascript.

rondon,

you have to check that the choosen encryption scheme is compatible 
on both sides. at least SHA-1 / MD5 should work.

here you have some javasript routines:
	http://www.movable-type.co.uk/scripts/sha1.html
	http://pajhome.org.uk/crypt/md5/index.html

howto rebol:
http://www.rebol.com/docs/words/wchecksum.html


just send some test data and adjust the encryption scheme at the 
javasript side.

with luck, the rebol implementation is suitable for the routines 
above.

ps: please report which one works ;-)

Rondon, Rebol encryption is well described in this secure document 
http://www.rebol.com/how-to/encrypt.html#section-15

Which refers to http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=crypt.r
