World: r4wp

Ok, works now.
I had to change to "..\fossil open ..

Kaj: awesome work!!

Thanks

Sqlab, do you have Fossil in the same directory as download.r? The 
script changes directories, so on Windows when Fossil is not really 
installed, this could have the effect of not finding it

Yes, I use Fossil only for your Red bindings.

Thanks. I've added code to download.r to test if Fossil is in the 
same directory. Can you confirm that this works on Windows?

maybe tomorrow.
Anyway good work

OK

It does not work.

There is the problem, that what-dir gives the rebol directory path, 
not the windows path.Even using a "to-local-file what-dir .."  does 
not help, as to local-file does not preserve the trailing (back)\slasjh

sorry this helps
fossil: to-local-file join what-dir  %fossil

Just read through Nick's "Business Programming" piece.  Outstanding 
work!  Clear and complete.

I have only two thoughts that might be helpful:


The initial case for REBOL as a non-programmers development tool 
could use some visuals and diagrams.  


This initial message is perhaps the most important part of the piece 
in my view and might be developed into a standalone article to be 
spread around.

I can already think of at least three people who need to read the 
introduction.

And it still relies on R2 combined with VID. That is logical though 
R3 and Red are the new preferred platforms for future development?

(Oh great work anyway!)

Thanks Sqlab, that really helps. I've added it to download.r

I don't think the first part (Case for non-developers learning to 
program) relies on either version of REBOL.

That article is still a work in progress.  Glad to see some approval 
:)

I think it would fit nicely into a university curriculum somewhere.

And, I am TERRIBLE  with visuals.

R3 needs more established tools to make the same case

Great work Nick!!

MaxV, I'd be good with using http://rebol.informe.com/portal.html
as a community portal.

Portal or page is not found
although http://rebol.informe.com/dies exist

That's funny...I was just there.

It's still working for me.

Not for, me neither with Firefox nor Chrome

me neither -- I'm seeing the Portal does not exist page; and a slightly 
odd message that it may take time for DNS changes to propagate.

That must be it, then: DNS for the apparently new subdomain rebol.informe.com 
still propagating

Ok, so wait a day and see if you like it

Okay.....I can see it now; so maybe it was a DNS thing.

@NickA-Let me think about some visuals.  Don't have much time, but 
I think this is important.

Thanks Scot - I'm putting together a presentation to introduce this 
text, so that would be really helpful!

Developed some visuals.
Published to Files / Docs / Images

EPS and PNG format for whatever you need.

They are very rough.  Feel free to redo or edit.

EPS didn't export properly...how can they be removed from the server?

You can only overwrite them

no rebol.informe.com/portal here either.

Great job, Kaj, on the GTK+ bindings!

Is it possible to provide an overview of all the Red information 
on the various links on http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/?
(do not follow this link it will only show you "Not Found")
Are all the links independent Fossil files?

Yes, all independent Fossil repositories

The listing on the Red site is incomplete:

http://www.red-lang.org/p/contributions_20.html

The new download.r script in the test repository is meant to provide 
a complete listing:

http://red.esperconsultancy.nl/Red-test/dir?ci=tip

Most of the older sites seem to be not actively maintained ... it's 
a huge task to keep things ticking over for 15 years or whatever.

Reboler.com seems good .. easier to type than the other.

Florin, check with MaxV as he has created some nice resources.

Yes, look here http://rebol.informe.com/portal.htmland here  http://rebol2.blogspot.com
