Hi Julia,
Try this...
rebol []
n1: 0
n2: 0
view layout [
a1: text to-string n1 100
with [
rate: 1 feel: make feel [
engage: [
n1: n1 + 1
a1/text: to-string n1 show a1
]
]
]
a2: text to-string n2 100
with [
rate: 10 feel: make feel [
engage: [
n2: n2 + 1
a2/text: to-string n2 show a2
]
]
]
button "Quit" [unview]
]
Someone else will have to explain why we need 'with, 'rate, 'feel and
'engage just to achieve this as I only know how to make it work.
Which of course may mean I'm doing it wrong, but it does seem to
work... (:
