[REBOL] Re: Redefining system words - gotchas

From: tim-johnsons::web::com at: 26-Apr-2007 16:38

Something I forgot to mention.... There's a corollary to this subject. I have a whole lot of code that uses the word path. Sometime - I think with REBOL/Core 2.6.2.4.2 - a native value called 'path has been introduced. This has sometimes raised hell with my legacy code.
>>help path ;; gives me
USAGE: PATH value selector DESCRIPTION: Path selection. PATH is an action value. ARGUMENTS: value -- (Type: any) selector -- (Type: any) Don't know any more about it. Can't find any documentation on it. But as you can see - introducing a new word from the binary can cause problems too... tim -- Tim Johnson <tim-johnsons-web.com> Palmer, Alaska, USA
