[!REBOL2 Releases] Discuss 2.x releases

Maxim

CREATED this group to comment 2.7.xx releases instead of jumping 
around core and view groups.
about #4172 fix in  2.7.2... YIPPE! 


can you imagine that this has been there for years! just show how 
some things can slip through the cracks.  it prevented a few faces 
from being pre-set within VID dialect.

Yeah I'm really in favor of this approach that RT has taken.
Can someone show me an example of how center-face could now be used 
to center off a parent face?

Paul, if you want to center relative to parent face, you just need 
to use CENTER-FACE face (assuming that face/parent-face is set, of 
course)
CENTER-FACE/WITH works like previously.

hmm.. why do the binaries for 2.7.0, 2.7.1 and 2.7.2 all take up 
the exact same size of 655360 bytes?
REBOL/View 2.7.x that is

Thanks Gabriele.

henrik, maybe it's just a coincidence...

I believe the PE file format has sections that are padded, so it 
may be that the internal padding is different, as are the code segments, 
but the resulting EXE is the same size. I suppose you could do a 
binary diff to see.

maybe Carl just likes oddities like this and makes them happen  ;-)

Anyone else have issues with this script? -- http://www.ross-gill.com/r/boston-cam.r

The script itself seems quite benign.
Henrik

it came very immediately. seems to come even before attempting to 
load the script from server
same with LOAD on the script
if I READ it first and then LOAD it, no problems

It seems to be in the HTTP protocol.

this is the faulty line:

Henrik

same with any URL actually.

strange, using read/binary returns an empty string!
Henrik
27-Nov-2006
[24]
should it be reported? It doesn't seem all that important :-)

(empty binary!, sorry)
LOL

Also, in the editor window, hitting the  'home' key produces a null 
character, and 'end' does nothing.

I guess it's early days :)

I'm putting the DO/LOAD thing on the blog
done
OSX version is out

Nice! I'll start doing some tests with View and OSX in the next days 
hopefully.

yet another build, this time with timers
my rotation zoomer finally works under OSX :-) A dream come true. 
but the colors are screwed!

do the timers exist in the win2.7.4 build or only the osx build? 
 couldn't seem to find any relevant ? timer* info..
or by timers is carl just referring to the VID based rate/time events 
rather than a Core accessible timer?
Gabriele

face/rate. afaik that didn't work in some osx builds.
Oldes

will be the rate finally increased?
Henrik
28-Nov-2006
[45]
timers work alright. several demos in the Public/Demos directory 
use timers

Oldes? do you mean under Windows? That would be great.

Henrik: I know, one of these is mine...but there was(is) inbuilt 
limit how fast the rate can be.

looks like the windows version is at 2.7.4 now
still has the DO/LOAD bug...

I think we started really strange route. Now we will have nice toy 
to play with, spend our time, introducing new bugs, whereas 3.0 slips 
further in the schedule, as RT has to correct bugs present with 2.7 
and its changes ...
