World: r4wp

I don't mind seeing Kaj's announcements in the announce group.

I'm OK either way. I go back to Announce more for REBOL/Red related 
things, which this is related to.

Kaj: I just downloaded the Win version of your GTK-Browser.exe app 
and the dozen of DLLs  required to run it and then it runs. But when 
I click on the Go button, nothing goes on. How is it supposed to 
react exactly ? The Quit button runs OK and the app is left.

Doc has just reported that it doesn't work on Windows. We're looking 
into it

By the way, you can download all the files, including the libraries, 
in one go

Kaj - are you after the ReBrowser, as Carl envisioned it? :-) Looks 
like R2 desktop replacement ... kind of ....

Yep

Fossil standardises on UTF-8 and standard line endings in text files. 
I suppose I should not link to single files anymore. From a folder 
in Fossil's web UI, you can at least view those files

To be able to handle such a file on Windows, you should either have 
an auto-converting editor, or convert them yourself. On the other 
hand, REBOL does it automatically

Gerard, which Windows version do you have?

I've tested that the GTK-browser and most other example programs 
work on Windows XP and WINE. So far, the problem seems to be limited 
to Windows 7

I have the same problems with XP.
The exe does nothing but the url line.

If I try to do or read  the .red from the console-pro, the console 
window closes.

Odd. Can you open the .red files when you copy them to your local 
machine? I haven't been able to test networking on XP yet, but it 
works in WINE

I have found a problem on Windows with reading files with Windows 
newlines, but reading Unix files is fine

I tried to do that with local .red files.

The ones on our Redsite? Others are meant for the compiler, not the 
interpreter

MaxV happy to see you're able to produce those builds.  its an inspiration 
for others to continue to submit and keeps the momentum going :-)

Are there builds? I only see source

make directory

Oh, Windows only

(And outdated as well.)

Yes, they seem to be just Saphirion's builds

Kai, the behavior that console-pro closes after reading a file is 
still present

Local files?

Which file are you trying?

Do you get any messages?

Just plain textfiles e.g. there is no message or error.

Android release: That is great Robert!

To AdrianS: you should have seen that the pull requests to the mainline 
source repository have started

(it is in the "Announce" group as well)

Also, please post related questions here, please, not to the "Announce" 
group

I have seen that, but what I was asking about is the actual source 
tree that Saphirion is using. I got the impression from Robert, some 
time ago, that it was somehow being 'cleaned up' and would be made 
public in some way.

For example it would be nice to see the actual Android work in progress.

Yes, that will happen soon, Adreas will probably find some time to 
help with that as well.

err. Andreas

Thank you Robert and Cyphre... Good news indeed.

You are welcome Scot ;-)

Some more Android port info. Since some people around were asking 
if it will be possible to 'encap' scripts with the Android R3 I've 
spent some time researching/prototyping in this area and I think 
I can now answer this question positively. It surely will be possible 
to make "encapper" for R3 on Android and my current prototype results 
show that we'll be able to do it without the need to install any 
SDK or other bloated instalations. It will be just one good-old "encapper 
exe" that will do the job for you.

Sqlab, I have no problem loading files from the command line into 
console-pro on Windows XP

Are you sure you have downloaded the latest console-pro.exe?

Are you sure you are loading files that can be executed by the Red 
interpreter?

That is a great news Cyphre!

Awesome, Cyphre!

Rock n roll Cyphre

Kaj, I deleted all files and subvols created by fossil and run download.r 
again.

The probem is not only with executable files, but with all files 
simple as containing just "Hello". 
write %test.txt "Hello" has the same effect.

What problem with executable files do you mean?

What effect with write %test.txt "Hello" do you mean

I really need some more specific information to understand your problem

You haven't answered my question about what text files you use. For 
example, what happens when you do
