Andreas, this is great! I'll apply the changes tomorrow evening since 
I'm not a my dev pc now, and put the DLL on the page for others to 
download and play it..

Word is that the current Syllable on the current VMware runs pretty 
fast, so you'll get a more accurate impressions than with other emulators 
like QEme. I just hope the download site is not swamped, because 
this news is currently also featured on OSNews

The closest route to doing this would be to recreate the old manual 
way of installation. Copy the base zip package to a FAT partition. 
Download the last boot floppies that were available for old Syllable 
versions. Follow the old manual installation procedure

5 Core developers, maybe 50 that have contributed at some time, 500 
on the mailing list, more than 1000 on the forum, 5000 who download 
each install CD, more than 10,000 who download each live CD and emulator 
image, tens of thousands who come visit when we're on OSNews, roughly 
an order of magnitude more when we're on Slashdot

Yes, from now on we're building the VMWare image ourselves. It's 
among the download files

I promise to download the vmware image in the near future.

only one peer in the swarm .. might as well do an http download from 
your S3 storage!

Wouldn't it be simpler to just provide the file in a format that 
most systems understand without having download another piece of 
software just for this purpose .. which then ruins the advantage 
of using an obscure compression system because you save a few bytes?

With the download being a few MB, you save download costs right with 
our first large package. Especially on dial-up, which is also a large 
part of the world. And of course, the next time you already have 
it installed

If I see a download that offers various compression schemes, I go 
for the one that is easiest for me.

Windows doesn't include much in general. From ME and XP on it has 
Zip, but that's it. Distributing large and popular downloads zipped 
is really not an option. Unless you want to sponsor our download 
costs

They are offered as torrents. But it saves only maybe a quarter of 
the costs, because more than half the people download the regular 
files - and that only if the audience is good

If I download any other linux distro, I can get it as an ISO image 
etc.

I did download as a torrent.  I think Kaj is storing stuff on S3 
which has a torrent feature.

If download violume is a problem for Syllable, could you find some 
people to mirror?

Nah, it's too much hassle, and we want the download statistics

but I suspected there might be a problem as when I tried to download 
it it had an htm extension which I removed to save as an iso extension

If you download the English live CD on Windows, the website says 
that you should rightclick on it

If you download the top link, you should be launched into a BitTorrent 
client if you have one installed

The third release of Syllable Server has been published. This is 
an important release, because it is the first one that focused on 
making the system actually usable as a server. A number of popular 
servers were added and configured, and also several innovative REBOL 
software stacks. Out of the imaginary box, Syllable Server is now 
ready for such things as accepting remote SSH log-ins over the network, 
running a web server on the Cheyenne REBOL server, running an FTP 
server and several more. Special attention has been paid to programmability, 
with support for developing Model-View-Controller web applications 
in QuarterMaster and networking applications with the REBOL/Services 
Service Oriented Architecture. The Genode Nitpicker windowing system 
is also included. Read the rest in the full changelog. An extensive 
manual was also written, which is easy to follow. As usual, both 
a BitTorrent download (preferred) and a regular download are available 
(80 MB 7-Zip archive). Please use the torrent if you can.

Does your REBOL client just download a file?

Just playing with Ubuntu JeOS.   How does one download stuff without 
a GUI ?  I tried wget and that isn't available.

Graham, did you try using apt-get to download stuff?

so what does one use in a server environment to download stuff?

Although it will download quite a bit more during the installation 
process.

And then, I download Rebol View 2.7.6 for Fedora (http://www.rebol.com/downloads/v276/rebview-fedx86.tar.gz) 
and it run perfect in a Kubuntu 8.10 CD-Live, better than Rebol View 
2.7.6 for Libc6, Debian (http://www.rebol.com/downloads/v276/rebview-linx86.tar.gz),for 
the last you need to install libstdc++5 and gcc-3.3-base.

Just download the drivers first

no clue  !!  I havn't even started putting content yet :-) 


working on new ssh-admin upload/download/shortcut features  and  
then  remark_mod.


until remark_mod is working, no content will be visible. forcing 
myself to implement what I've been wanting to do for years  ;-)

OK, so I've downloaded Ubuntu 9.04 (64bit) and got it running under 
VirtualBox, then I download and untar/zip the REBOL SDK and open 
a console session. cd to the REBOL dir and do a chmod +x and type 
./rebview ... which comes back with a "file or dir not found message" 
... anything else I need to do to get REBOL working? Oh, and what 
font looked best with RebGUI in your opinion?

Wow... 420MB download for stripped down Gnome...

anyway, don't listen to me, just download the live cd, look at it, 
and trash it if you don't like it.

Where Can I Download the linux host kit?

I've download latest REBOL in Xubuntu. Viewtop opened without problem 
but when I switched to console, nothing appeared. Because I deselected 
"show desktop on startup", now I cannot start REBOL at all. Any ideas?

I tried to download the LIbc6 View 2.7.7 from the main download page 
to check. The file name is http://www.rebol.com/downloads/v277/rebol-view-277-4-2.tar.gz
but it contained this :
REBOL/View 2.7.6.4.2 15-Mar-2008
Copyright 2000-2008 REBOL Technologies.  All rights reserved.
REBOL is a trademark of REBOL Technologies. WWW.REBOL.COM

I've tried REBOL with 3 Linux distributions now (Arch Linux, Puppy 
Linux, Ubuntu) and the Fedora version of REBOL is always the one 
that works best. Is there even a Linux distribution that works with 
the Libc6 version? Maybe it would be a good idea to mention on the 
download site "You probably want to download the Fedora version" 
to make this easier for new users and maybe also rename the Fedora 
download since it doesn't work for just Fedora.

the live cd is missing stuff (in order to make it fit), it also is 
doing everything in memory (including the things you download and 
try to install), and afaik the "ram disk" is fixed size (so it may 
not be big enough to hold what you're trying to install).

its actually about 15 minutes to download install and run on any 
server (or your machine).  and from there, rebol cgi is much faster 
since its persistent.

1 difference:  using RT's download, the REBOL console only works 
when REBOL is started from the Ubuntu command line (i.e., not when 
it's started by clicking an icon in file manager).  New users may 
think that scripts are broken because GUIs w ork fine, no matter 
how REBOL is started.

Alan, the binary packaged in rebol.deb is identical with the rebol-view-277-4-3 
download from rebol.com. (Which is the "Linux x86 Fedora" download.)

Added menu integration! You can download from: http://www.maxvessi.net/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.GuidaARebol
downloading the nname become the correct one.
I'll work on the dependencies next week.

SOLVED!!! Added dependecies xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi !!!! Thank 
you very much Adnreas!!!!!!!!
You can download last linux packages from: 
http://www.maxvessi.net/rebsite/Linux/

so we could download them into draw tools using rebservices

90+% of what you need to do that, Steeve, is already in the Library:

[1] we could (in minutes) add extra valid domains or types so a script 
could be categorised as draw-snippet


[2] the LIbrary doesn't use rebservices for an API. It has an API 
called LDS that predates rebservices (basically, the library team 
got there first). You can use it to download any script (among other 
things too)

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/documentation.r?script=lds-local.r#toc-50


[3] using LS to download a snippet every time it is needed would 
be slow and wasteful.....But you could easily write get-draw-snippet 
that caches results locally.
****

That would not be perfect as it would be good to have a page/pages 
showing the images the snippets produce. But if there were enough 
snippets, we could add that.....And, before we do someone else could 
beat us to it on their own website -- they could use LDS to get all 
the snippets and display the images. It'd be a neat bit of Community 
interaction.

====> Perhaps switch to Library for any detailed discussion.

Apollo 1.4.1 released: http://home.tiscali.dk/john.niclasen/apollo.zip

Fixed a problem with the buttons for missions with a lot of pictures. 
Unpack the zip and start apollo.r. The indexes for Apollo 7-17 missions 
doing the years 1968-1972 will be created. The script loadthumbs.r 
can be used to download all thumbnail pictures, so the apollo.r script 
will run faster. Run loadthumbs.r after the indexes have been created 
by apollo.r. (Thumbs are around 30MB!)


The pictures are a collection of the pictures released on the website:

There is finally a script to demonstrate some of GLayout's current 
capabilities.

the demo script will download and save slim and glayout on its own 
(asking first), hands free, no obscure installation needed.

GLayout demo 0.9.1 Released:
------------------

-auto-updates latest version of GLayout (as per slim requirement).

-new layout using switchpad (btw, switchpad automatically adds a 
right-click popup to select panes)
-takes advantage of new GLayout features.

-improved input field filter example, now properly reacts to caret 
offset (cursor)
-better button and field options examples
-adds center style examples.

First of our proposed source releases..  Rash 1.1  -- Now GPL

(Windows binary.. will post the Rebol source as soon as I find it 
;)


Rash is a Rebol / Flash Hybrid Personal Agent using some early Natural 
Language Processing prototypes

The technology has grown since this application, and is being incorporated 
into Framewerks, but it's a fun introduction.

I'll post an old description of what it does in the Redwerks group


Download here..  See the Redwerks group for instructions.. or posting 
questions.

Wait a minute. Let me rephrase that:



REBOL3.0 Alpha 1 for Windows is out

You can download it here:


http://www.rebol.net/builds/rebol3/alpha/rebol29904031.zip


Carl has made a blog entry about it here:


http://www.rebol.com/article/0347.html


  Please note that this is alpha software and represents a work in 
  progress! Be nice to the developers. There's no support for you yet, 
  but it will come later. Now play with it and be good.

Windows services support library for REBOL 1.0.0 released. Download 
: http://softinnov.org/rebol/nt-services.shtml

NTLM support library for REBOL v1.0.3 released. Download here : http://softinnov.org/rebol/ntlm.shtml


If you've had issue using this library before with a MS (NTLM) proxy, 
please give it a new try. It fixes a major issue with NTLM proxy 
and has been updated to work with 2.7.6.

BrianH: Sorry for that question, but how could I find where to download 
somehing on DevBase ? I saw your messages, but that's all.

I have a utility that I am testing that will login to hotmail, download 
all the messages, and then detach alll attachments

Anyway, about the App...

It's a study tool for the FDNY Promotional Exams. It incorporates 
all the FDNY Manuals into a special format (Similar to Make-doc) 
and allows you to hi-lite, "attach" notes, search the entire catalogue, 
bookmark your place, track "buzz words" Future versions will incorporate 
thousands of test questions all of which are linked to the material 
by book, chapter, and section, and also the ability to add tour own 
questions. Curriculums will be added to guide study of only pertinent 
materials for and test and the ability to form your own curriculums.


Updates to the program and the study material is automatic as well 
as synchronization of a users hi-lites, notes etc. ( this allows 
for a user to use from multiple locations, home/work etc., and also 
serves as a back-up method for what could be months of work for the 
user.

Many more plans...


If you are interested, my site is still alpha and looks like crap 
but it has some screen shots and a video of the program in action. 
I'm using Cheyenne (Thanks Doc) and there is a cute (but ugly) RSP 
page that handles my FAQs page... http://firecaptainnyc.com


If you are really interested, feel free to contact me and I can give 
you the link to download it....

There is a guest mode and demo mode built in...

I welcome any feedback!

Alexandr: < I tried ascii-chart script and it unfortunately doesn't 
show any cyrillic letters>
What I did that showed me some cyrillic was this:
** download the ascii-chart.r script from rebol.org
** change this line
     [append hex-lo [box 25x25 blue]
to
    [append hex-lo [box 25x25 blue font-name "WP CyrillicA"]
WP CyrillicA

 is a Cyrillic font I happen to have installed on my Windows PC. Any 
 Cyrilic font you have is likely to have a different name. When specifying 
 the font name it is case sensitive.


If this works for you. it may also help for many VID styles (BOX, 
BUTTON etc) It probably won't help for ALTER and other pop-up boxes

we should be able to use wiki tools to download it and I can then 
upload to the new wiki

I used wxwidgets before... and it works... but I hate bloated stuff 
every day more and more... 

And Rebol way with one file download and simple text file few lines 
long working on linux and win just as it is............

Man, I'll wait for rebol3 and its modules and other more usefull 
stuff and wont look back.... :)

Until then I'll keep using rebol for stuff like ftp, email and simple 
interface stuff.....

it's not in the download section of rebol.com anymore ?

We have some trouble with our provider, it hasn't yet answer to our 
HD replace request :-/. So still down...I'll set up a temporary download

Cheyenne release v0.9.17 beta. Download at http://softinnov.org/tmp/cheyenne-r0917.zip

HOW-TO make Cheyenne work with PHP for non-Windows OS


The purpose of the following patch is to make FastCGI in PHP work 
the same on all OSes.


1) If you have PHP v5.2.1 or higher with sources, you can skip 2) 
& 3) else :

2) Download latest PHP sources from http://www.php.net/downloads.php
3) Untar the archive anywhere yo want
4) Go to PHP install folder
5) Patching PHP source :

	Open a REBOL console, then :

;---- cut'n paste the following code in REBOL's console ----

patch-php: has [buffer pos][
	target: %sapi/cgi/fastcgi.c
	if none? attempt [buffer: read target][
		print "unable to find the file to patch!!"
		exit
	]
	either parse buffer [
		thru "int fcgi_accept_request("
		to "if (req->fd >= 0) {"
		pos: to end
	][
		insert pos "^/^-^-^-^-break;^/^-^-^-^-"
		write target buffer
		print "patch applied."
	][
		print "failed to locate the line to patch!!"
	]
]

patch-php
;---- end of code ----
		
6) Once the patch is applied :

	> ./configure --enable-fastcgi
	> make
	> sudo make install
	
7) Check if everything is ok :

	> php-cgi -h
	...
	you should see a -b option listed meaning you got proper
	FastCGI support.
	
	If it fails (occured on OSX), try with a full path instead :
	
	> /usr/local/bin/php-cgi -h
	

8) Edit Cheyenne's config file (httpd.cfg) to set the correct option 
in the PHP section. Non-Windows users have to also set the new 'delay 
option.

doc: source code service: not like docbase. it's more for control 
of what versions a user can download, discerning between stable, 
unstable versions. also delivers a clean upgrade procedure that is 
easy for the user. one can download scripts, packages of scripts 
and on-demand encapped executables. it works all inside REBOL/Services, 
but I need a "virgin" entry, so new users can get their programs 
through a webbrowser as well.

Cheyenne release v0.9.18 beta. Download at http://softinnov.org/tmp/cheyenne-r0918.zip

DocKimbel, small request: Would it be possible to post the rsp guide, 
cheatsheet and docs as separate pages directly on the site? It's 
unpractical to have to download Cheyenne every time I switch machine, 
just to read the docs. Thanks.

Doc?  Can you post quick download links for some variations of uber 
cool blue C logo you've created.  Perhaps one with a Powered By in 
your favourite forms?

Ok, but this requires that I download it, install it and than take 
a look.

one think comes to mind, if you use the source instead of the binary, 
after unzipping the download I always have to convert all line endings, 
I unzip then drag the whole folder on LineBreak.app http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/13491
. I remember having strange behaviours like your ones if not done. 
I'm on os x as well

I want to allow download of the faxes.  I made the file  names links

<a href=showfax.rsp?fax000000.tif>fax000000.tif</a>

and showfax.rsp is 

<%
recvqdir: %/var/spool/hylafax/recvq/
file: dehex request/content/filename

switch suffix? file [
	%.tif [ response/set-header 'Content-type "image/tiff" ]
	%.pdf [ response/set-header 'Content-type "application/pdf" ]
]
response/buffer: read/binary join recvqdir file file
%>

but when the file downloads,it is called showfax.rsp ...

I've released it as beta and posted the download link here, so main 
Cheyenne's users already have it.

If you can access to the server through rconsole just do this : write 
%debug.log mold uniserve (and put the compressed version of the %debug.log 
file on your web site so I can download it).

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but "Accept-Ranges: bytes" is not implemented. 
Can this be done ?

I've just tried to resume a file from Henrik's server, and noticed 
that it has "Accept-Ranges: none". I know this means the web server 
is advertising "you can't resume!" My download client can use this 
information to avoid trying to resume, but it would be even better 
if the server allowed me to resume too :-)

Sure, more tester would be nice, you'll find the last driver beta 
download URL in the MySQL AltME channel.

well, for your users i'd let the app itself download the updates 
and so on.

ok, will look for it in an old download.

mine is already capable of all the file browsing/upload/download 
to the server  :-)

well, actually it can... its just not going to download concurrently.

download and double click.... but  I'm working on mod-remark, so 
its not currently serving web pages...

mplayer allows me to force tcp... but i get only audio. it would 
still be much easier to just have a simple http download link... 
KISS

there is somewhere my script called download-it!.r or so ...

Found a link on REBOLWeek: http://anton.wildit.net.au/

His batch-download is here: http://anton.wildit.net.au/rebol/util/batch-download.r

well, otoh, why should I look for the script - you can download via 
browser manually, no? there is not so many videos anyway ...

this is a version with partial download:

I grabbed them with a download manager, except for Reichart's which 
404s.

The download manager I used to download the videos, which is very 
good at managing the downloads after the download is done.
