maybe we should start HTML5 group, shouldn't we?

agree

OF course...

Althogh, perhaps HTML Dialect would be the same thing?

What's the purpose? General chat about HTML5, as a new wave of de-facto 
standard for app development, or REBOL-2-HTML5 compiler? :-)

Reichart, no the HTML Dialect is a product.

I just realized the HTML group has vanished... or was made private 
and I'm not in it.

I see it's not marked as such.

Anyone here using FlashDevelop with AS3 spark components?

I don't think so. Me not. We are now solving, hot get running subset 
of Flash 8 (AS2 bytecode) to get our game on Wii so AS3 is really 
in a far future.

I am just waiting for a friend at Adobe to send me latest Flash Pro 
by Snail mail via Toronto ( imagine if mail between west Euro capitals 
were as  slow as mail form USA mid-west to eastern Canada ... - where 
are the Thurin-Taxis ?? )

I usually amazed at how fast the mail works...at least around here 
(NY)

I suppose  the dialect grammer has changed?

The site is outdated for a long time... I had not time to make any 
docs and don't have it now as well.. I hope I will have some this 
year :/
But you I can build the above example with this version:

00100005417269616C000002007F09220000000200680011300000B4000D...

Also there is a pretty high chance that the old site will expire 
in a near future. I will create a new one, but at this moment I'm 
busy to finish Wii version of Machinarium which means I must put 
360MB of the original game to the Nintendo's 40MB limit. I'm still 
6MB over at this moment.

And also the version of the RSWF from the link above is not the actual 
one as I have several forks at this moment. But the above should 
be the most compatible with the old examples.

Thank you., Oldes.

In the far future I would like to rewrite the dialect completely 
as some of it's parts are really old and I would do it differently 
today. And I would like to be able to produce the AVM2 bytecode as 
well.

REBOL/Flash , the killer app in REBOL?    :-)

As you maybe know, when you want to get your app to iOS, all code 
must be compiled into single IPA file (from ActionScript bytecode 
to native bytecode), which you can make out of one SWF only. I was 
not able to even load all sources of our game (>GB) into Flash Pro 
to be able create the only one SWF.

But I've found a solution (I hope, because it's still not tested 
on real iPad). The solution is:

REBOL [
	title: "Machinarium for iPad"
	type: 10
	file: %Machinarium_iPad.swf
	background: 0.0.0
	rate: 25
	size: 1024x721
	compressed: false
]

background 0.0.0
FileAttributes 2#{000 01000000000000000000000000000}

end

(the above require REBOL/Flash dialect version, which is not public 
yet)

Also iPad require AVM2 bytecode, which is not supported with RSWF. 
I use above script just to merge code together.

(AIR SDK which is used to get IPA file requires AVM2 bytecode, iOS 
requires native code)

Thank you Oldes - any updates and links to current versions are appreciated!

Funny! I'm talking with a guild, that will play Star Wars: The Old 
Republic, when it comes out, and they just had a thread about Machinarium 
today. It's sold on Steam for 2.12 Euro atm. it seems. Good to know, 
REBOL is being used in such success applications. I guess, we can 
call Machinarium a success? :)

Definitely! I also bought it 2 xmases ago and the singaporean hackerspace 
bought it too (or i bought it for it?... cant recall)

I should recover my old RSWF pages as it's being popularised: http://www.flashrealtime.com/how-to-join-swf-files-air-ios/

Oldes, very cool. And you should keep those rswf pages alive. They 
were good stuff.

Maybe. But they are quite obsolete these days when everybody is interested 
mainly in Stage3D.

Well, you never know, even "old" stuff can be useful.
