Note that that was a first-round mockup of the R3 version, Endo. 
If you want to make an R2 version, download the latest script and 
edit it similarly.

This is the fisrt open source REBOL interpreter with working downloadable 
Windows binaries that I've seen.  I can't believe that I never found 
those download links before.  I think that this should be promoted 
more!

Aren't you able to freely download the latest SDK binaries?

The 2.7 test release has been built. This is the base build for the 
next release. It contains SSL, ODBC, DES, etc., and no-license key 
is required.


In addition, I've added an install checkbox to the Prefs (User panel) 
and an Uninstall to the Help panel. These are just shortcuts to existing 
features.

The download is www.rebol.com/downloads/view277-test1.exe


Note that it's version # is 2.7.6, but it has a new system/build 
date. Don't mix it up with prior versions, as it's not at all tested.

for hotmail, and gmail ...  download prot-spop.r from http://compkarori.no-ip.biz:8090/REBOL_stuff/REBOL_2/Secure_POP_and_SMTP

Install the 32bit drivers here: http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php?op=files&id=odbc

Most of what is needed for Windows 7 compatibility was also needed 
for Windows 2000 compatibility (I reported it then), and mostly in 
the /View installer and registry usage. That installer is in the 
community-supported portion of R2, so if you download the SDK source 
you can take a look. The installer changes are intended for inclusion 
in 2.7.8, as the changes doc indicates.

Is the download page for 2.7.8 easy to find?

as usualy http://www.rebol.com/download-view.html

Thanks.... curious that this link does not yet show it http://www.rebol.com/download.html

On my windows XP SP3 the VIEW is failing as invalid exe; the CORE 
is fine;  these are both numbered 3.1 for 2.7.8 and no change with 
fresh download; the inspected exe is not garbage but kicks this error 
whether in open cmd session console or fired by explorer - I did 
not try under Cygwin or MSys yet ...

I can't find the 2.7.8 download - anyone have a link - windows here.

one indicator: IE 8 (which is not my default now since I moved to 
K-mleon) runs VIEW 2.7.8 as a right-click option using RUN - but 
download with IE8 and run from Explorer file view correctly triggers 
a request to authorize due to no "valid" digital signature for MS 
- yet this MS alert fails to trigger when run after download using 
K-meleon browser (yet no issue after K-meleon downloads CORE 2.7.8 
)

and the actuall download isn't insane... it ~45MB.  for a full-featured 
cutting-edge 3D engine this is very small.  We have to remember that 
3D and image aren't just functions, they actually require data which, 
because of the array aspect of them, requires a lot of memory... 
so I am thinking that a large part of the 45MB is in fact source 
data which is needed, in order to populate the actual scene.

Although Cyphre and I have both been able to build it using Mingw, 
other's have not been able to do so, and we're not sure why as of 
yet.


Therefore, we're not quite ready to distribute the host-kit to everyone, 
because we need more testing on it. However, if you want to actually 
test it (windows only), then ask Henrik for the download URL.

With CMake the workflow of a user who wants to build the hostkit 
on Win32 would be as follows:
- Download and install a toolchain (e.g. MingW or MSVC)
- Download and install CMake
- Download the R3 Hostkit

- Generate a R3 build script for your preferred toolchain using CMake. 
E.g. use CMake to generate a GNU make Makefile for MingW
- Build the R3 Hostkit (using the generated build script)

@Carl, the chicken came first!  So, just give us the A101 download 
link

Here's another test 
download  http://www.compkarori.com/r3extend/img.zip
unpack it
run the r3.exe

secure [ extension allow ]
import %3d.dll
test

and it shows a 3d figure you can rotate with the mouse

http://www.spread.org/download.html

if you download the OpenGL demo, there is a complete working setup. 
 it has a makefile and a visual studio 2008 setup .  it should help 
you out.

I'm completely C/C++ newbie, so I would like to know, how to make 
the extension, if I have precompiled DLL.
For example, In R2 I can simply download the DLL like this one:
http://zlib.net/zlib125-dll.zip

And simply do:

zlib.dll: load/library %zlib1.dll

zlib-version: make routine! [ return: [string!] ] zlib.dll "zlibVersion"
zlib-version
;== "1.2.5"


Is there someone who can write a simple tutorial - C extension with 
the zlib-version command?

That's merely a problem of organising download directories

Have them download a zip file containing the Windows binaries. That's 
how SQLite does it.

please download to local disk

http://rebol.hmkdesign.dk/files/r3/gui/r3.exe
http://rebol.hmkdesign.dk/files/r3/gui/r3lib.dll


Fixes clipping bug (disappearing faces) and garbage in text fields. 
Please download and test.

Pekr, did you download the latest r3-gui.r3?

i just download your last version of r3 and r3lib.dll. i will wait 
for it ;-)

I would try to build A110, but I am not able to get sources from 
Carl's git. I tried to download his .zip archive, changed to TO_WIN32 
in the .h config file, but it does not build - probably a linux distro 
...

download http://94.145.78.91/files/r3/gui/r3-gui.r3
do %r3-gui.r3

download the file as directed, when doing it:

This looks like you are using the /Core version no? Where did you 
download the 2.100.110.3.1?

You need to get a GUI build and download Henrik's compiled R3 GUI 
code. Look above here for the links.

We have setup official R3-GUI download place: http://www.rm-asset.com/code/downloads/files/r3-gui.r3.zip

Maybe provide a unzipped download for the r3-gui as well? So that 
we can directly DO the url?

Juste re-download R3, r3-gui.r3 on another computer...

>> do %r3-gui.r3

Your version is current.
>>

New 'X-mas' release of R3-GUI is available for download at http://www.rm-asset.com/code/downloads/

top-level changes:

-smarter face update mechanism
-improved dynamic panel content handling
-internal optimizations and more system-friendly redesign
-cleanup of obsolete code parts

some more detailed notes:


- panels can now contain normal, VISIBLE faces, HIDDEN faces (just 
invisible, but taking the same space as the visible faces), IGNORED 
faces (invisible, and not taking any space), FIXED (visible, but 
not resizing with the panel, having a fixed position and size)

- the ON-CONTENT actors for all panels (HGROUP, VGROUP, VPANEL, HPANEL) 
now are as much compatible with series function as practical, taking 
an integer index, high-level function can take a gob or a face to 
specify the position as well

- Data optimization: FACES attribute removed to not need to store 
and maintain the same information twice, risking the conflicts (they 
were already present, order of faces was not identical)


You can also download the latest R3.exe from our site which contains 
LOAD-GUI that directly loads the actual release. This way you are 
always using the latest R3GUI codebase.


We'll be updating the 'old' documentation soon to be up-to-date with 
our current R3GUI version. So interested developers can start using 
it for real or participate on the project.

I think you don't have the R3 version with View. You can download 
it here: http://www.rm-asset.com/code/downloads/

Pekr, can't you post the whole script somewhere on the net so I can 
download and see what it does?

Could I ask you for a download link?

Just making few notes:

1. we don't push anyone to use/accept R3GUI from RMA


2. anyone who is missing "Carl's GUI" can download it at http://www.rebol.com/r3/gui.r
and happily use and enhance it. (It really works much better than 
RMA version...especially with A111 :-))


3. Having 'good looking' demo doesn't mean anything when the system 
cannot be used in real application. (That was the first thing we 
realized when checking the "Carl's GUI" and that's why we continued 
to improve our own version based on Carl's design)

4. It has been said by defferent RMA-members:

-this project is still in 'alpha', we are working frequently on it 
to be better
-we are publishing/sharing our work-in-progress code
-we invite any good contribution to the wip code

So far the major reaction to our effort is none,negative or contra-productive 
here even from some people who have experiences with mangement of 
larger projects(*sigh*). I don't understand why.

This has of course nothing to do with constructive critics which 
we hear, discuss and think about every useful comment (even if it 
is not accepted in the end). Unfortunately we could count 'useful 
comments' in this group on fingers on both hands max.


5. even with all the negative energy that is 'pumped' on us from 
Rebol3 we will continue with releasing our work and inform people 
here about the progress etc.

The updated version of the %r3-gui.r3 currently looks as follows:

REBOL [
    title: "R3-GUI"
    from: "RM-Asset"
    license: http://www.rebol.com/r3/rsl.html
    version: 1917
    date: 25-Feb-2011/17:50:30.907555
]


Note, that this is a version, that is not available yet for the download, 
since it is being updated. Also, the VERSION number and DATE are 
values taken from the RM-Asset Subversion repository.


Anybody knows what happened to the license page Carl originally kept 
at

http://www.rebol.com/r3/rsl.html

? Another question: do you miss any other info in the header?

This is really difficult to take, even for me. With each release, 
I download, go thru tests, read release notes, and I put my comments 
here on what i think about new additions, etc. I am the only one 
reporting actually anything here, so it logically can look like I 
am criticizing something. But could you please mark for me any insulting 
comment from my early morning report?

I've done quite a few html analysers and with a bit of experience 
I have found that going with a brute force parse on pages ends-up 
being very effective.  I did a font downloading script for www.acidfonts.com 
a few years ago and it took more time to actually download all the 
pages than build the script.  :-)

About examples: if you download the repository, or the source archive, 
you'll find a test directory which has the test suite for (almost) 
all the modules. the tests are often usable as "examples" for how 
to use the modules themselves.

The download locations seem to be protected by security through obscurity

btw, I released a new host-kit which has custom gob rendering enabled 
(very early prototype) but its got an OpenGL rendering engine running 
within view.


you can see the download link in the announce group, if you want 
to try it out.

If you download this:
http://bolka.at/2009/misc/exports.tar.gz

extract and make

You need to download and rip apart Xcode, amongst other things.

ssolie: here you can download simple benchmark: http://cyphre.mysteria.cz/tests/gfx-bench.r3

this is old Carl's gui. I am not sure it works, most probably it 
does not. Go into R3 GUI group here, and find some of Henrik's links 
and download RM Assets' GUI

You can try do download the zip again as I did. There was a wrong 
version.

If you want just to try A110, go to REBOL3 GUI group here, there's 
a link to download a binary and dll .... we will have to wait for 
Carl to resurface and correct the release, or even better - to merge 
the changes to official location ...

For those who are impatient I put the RMA Host-Kit on this URL: http://www.rm-asset.com/code/downloads/files/rma-host-kit.zip

It's not yet on the official RMA download page but Robert will be 
updating the page content soon.

Again, this might be a Graham question: I'm still working with that 
video encoder which uses http to communicate. They have a .cgi script 
which downloads the recorded video file from the internal SD card 
to the requester. My problem is the content I receive is somehow 
different than the files which I can download via a browser and of 
course will not play. I still using your http-tools to GET/POST. 
My initial thought was that  data returned is somehow being translated. 
Any thoughts?

I want to download the page, and to do it from different ip

GrahamC, thank you for passing this around.  I did get part way to 
a solution, as noted on your site.  Strange as it may seem, I am 
able to get to the network drives if I run a copy of REBOL that I 
download and leave with the name it came with, namely rebol-view-278-3-1. 
 The copy of REBOL that was giving me trouble was the same rebol-view-278-3-1, 
but I had renamed it to rebview to make a desktop shortcut work. 
 I had the name "rebview" in the shortcut so that I would not have 
to change the shortcut if I ever got an upgraded version of REBOL 
with a different name, like maybe rebol-view-279.  So my first problem 
with WIndows 7, REBOL, and network drives seems fixed.  


I still am not to a full solution to my Windows 7 issues.  I have 
some REBOL scripts that use the "call" command to run powershell. 
 Powershell then runs a powershell script to extract stuff from an 
EXCEL spreadsheet, which then is manipulated by the REBOL script. 
 Actually it's a bit messier.  I run a REBOL program launcher on 
the C drive which runs a REBOL script on a network drive.  The script 
on the network drive calls powershell with parameters to make powershell 
run a powershell script.  The powershell script extracts EXCEL data, 
and the calling REBOL script then makes a report of the extracted 
data.  


When I try to do this, the result from powershell is that I am not 
allowed to run scripts on that computer.  I am aware of this feature 
of powershell, and I have done what has worked for Windows XP (set-executionpolicy 
remotesigned).  I can run powershell directly, and execute scripts 
located on a network drive.  When a REBOL script that worked on XP 
calls powershell on WIndows 7, it won't go.  I am not expecting any 
help with this last issue at this time because the "call" does work 
in some cases (call/shell "notepad") (call/console/show "powershell"), 
so I still have several things to try, and if none work I am plotting 
a work-around.

It still does if you use msysgit. But not much of an issue unless 
you really care for download size.

but msysGit seems to manage all of that into a single download and 
install, so it seems to not be such an issue.  (not like MinGW which 
requires to use its rather obscure and poorly documented package 
downloader)

Now someone should really write some short docs. This is so complex 
and surely was not created for normal mortal, who just wants to download 
few source files and build a distro? So I downloaded Tortoise Git, 
naively thinking this is all I need. No, so I installed Git preview 
version (not full msysGit). Now - what should I do? I created a directory 
called host-kit, right pressed mouse, and chose "create repository 
here" or something like that. Now once again I press right mosue 
button, and try either git-clone, or Git sync, but it does nothing 
... I think my problem might be (apart from being too dumb and not 
willing to spend tonnes of my free time with such complex stuff):

- I am required to have some kind of account at target site

- I don't have it somehow linked with SSH stuff (did not choose to 
use my putty installation during the installation phase)


How do I get the actual copy of R3 Host Kit? There might be plenty 
users as me, willing just to download recent sources, and build, 
not to commit anything ...

Pekr, why you didn't choosed the download I was recomending and choosed 
the Tortoise? Btw.. isn't it just enough to go here: http://github.com/rebolsource/r3-hostkit
and click the big DOWNLOAD button?

Has a list of download links on http://www.git-scm.com/download

And add a link to http://www.git-scm.com/downloadinstead.

I can't even find the download. Is it BSD?

Download: that's strange, there was a download button under the title 
of the article, I've got it a few of hours ago, checking the licensing 
terms in the sources archive...

Here's the direct download link: ttp://software.intel.com/file/7242 
(~27MB)

The library seems to be built upon IEEE 754 standard, so should be 
able to be accelerated by an FPU. Btw, here's the  download page: 
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-decimal-floating-point-math-library/

I'm using View on our inhouse Syllable Workstation, which I could 
give you a download for

Ok, trying to download them (wget?)

Doc, the newest Syllable browser offers to download the executables, 
so it's probably a problem with the older browser. The new one is 
on your live CD, not in the 0.6.6 release

That would be good for the public. Myself, I would probably keep 
updating from trunk. I'm running a Git download through my Syllable 
build system to install a new version

Looks very nice Kaj! Is your SDL binding available to download somewhere 
yet?

I did download the Windows GTK distribution to get the library names 
right, so apparently I did it right :-)

this isn't it ? http://www.libsdl.org/download-1.2.php

Here's the direct download link for the GTK runtime I'm using: http://freefr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/gtk-win/GTK%2B Runtime Environment/GTK%2B 2.22/gtk2-runtime-2.22.0-2010-10-21-ash.exe

Mike, I got the DLL versions for Windows from the official Windows 
download from the GTK site

XScale is based on ARMv5, so it should work, you just need to figure 
out how to download an executable from the NSLU2 and run it.

It does not sound like much creative work... you can just download 
some existing theme like http://www.bloggerthemes.net/heliumified/demo
and tweek it a little bit... but it requires access to the site.

AFAIK you only need to download the google plugin. it should be possible 
to connect with other clients as well, but i haven't tried that with 
hangout.

IIRC, there's a Google Hangout browser plugin to download to enable 
the webcam.

Why you just down download https://github.com/Geomol/World/zipball/master

Clicking left button does not help at all - brings you to subpage, 
where no download button is available. So I used raw link. It stores 
it as 515kb exe, which is not runnable.

of course there is the download link... it's called RAW.. and you 
could also see history with diffewrent versions

Just try to download .raw - it is not runnable

Because I had no experience with LLVM, because I started World dev. 
on older MacBook, because LLVM was many MB download, because I wasn't 
sure, I could get LLVM on Windows and Linux easily.
