World: r3wp

Thanks, I don't really use Windows so it's hard for me to keep up 
to date on that front. Peter already said he's going to update the 
wiki; if anyone else wants to help, I believe github allows a fork 
approach to the wiki as well, otherwise I can add you to the main 
wiki to edit it directly.

Also, you only really need to install node etc. if you want to work 
*on* Topaz, otherwise you can use any web browser to just *use* Topaz, 
like in the try-topaz.html example.

I wonder if it makes sense to allow REBOL to call try-topaz.html, 
although it would be calling JS code? Then you could mix Topaz with 
REBOL for tests, etc.

res: topaz [1 + 2]

a topaz function for REBOL, you mean?

yes, something like that

once I have the compiler, it would certainly be possible to target 
REBOL instead of JS. not sure if that is useful though. :-)

but, i guess you can use CALL to run node.js, or you can get node.js 
to listen to a tcp port and connect to it from REBOL, etc.

I was only thinking about whether it could be used to test topaz 
vs. rebol via one piece of code.

ok

henrik, do you mean something like? :

topaz: func [ block ][

 load read/custom http://server/try-topaz.htmlreduce ['POST  mold 
 block]
]


(where the post data above is replaced by whatever is required to 
properly fill in the form)

Maxim, certainly not, as there is no server side whatsoever to try-topaz.html

ok, I thought the discussion about using node.js was for this purpose... 
to have server and client side using the same language... sorry for 
the confusion.

Topaz runs in any JS interpreter; I use node.js because it's convenient. 
try-topaz.html uses the JS interpreter in your browser to run Topaz.

then it may be too much trouble. I was simply curious.

No arithmetic operators in topaz yet?

Not implemented

I've updated the getting started wiki page at GitHub.

Please let me know if there are any errors in it.

Last comitt was 3 months ago?

I'm busy.

Added a couple commits to make Graham happy. :P

I need to check the Topaz G+ hangout :)

We need to do that again soon... I'm leaving for LA in about a week, 
then we have BIL2012 there, then I'll see if I can set up a hangout.
