[REBOL] Re: [port/skip]

Hmm - I was badly wrong about skipping files after an open working okay - REBOL totally
locks up when I attempt this kind of thing... (Taken from the Users' Guide: http://www.rebol.com/docs/core23/rebolcore-14.html#section-8.4)...
fp: open/direct/binary %file.dat
fp: skip fp 100000
My example...
>> write %test.txt "abcdefghijkl"
>> fp: open/direct/binary %test.txt
>> fp: skip fp 4
At that point it totally locks up. Esc's no use - have to use Ctrl/Alt/Delete to shut
REBOL down. Using Win98SE. Is it the same for other Windows users?
