[REBOL] Re: can't call notepad

Hi Rosemary,
Your first and second examples filename will be loaded by rebol
as type url!, so this could cause problems with unintended percent
encoding of urls.
I would avoid that way.
Instead, you could use string! (as you have) for Windows local paths,
or convert rebol file! types to Windows local paths.
Eg.
call rejoin ["notepad.exe " "c:\rebol\fred.txt"]
call rejoin ["notepad.exe " to-local-file %"/c/rebol/fred.txt"]
Note you might have to surround the local path with quotes when it
contains a space.
call rejoin [
{notepad.exe }
{"}
to-local-file %"/c/program files/fred.txt"
{"}
]
Something like that.
Regards,
Anton.
