[REBOL] Commander.c adds Shell access for Rebol
From: fsievert:uos at: 20-Mar-2001 18:49
Hi!
Until RT adds a launch support for /Core and /View you can try my
commander.c program.
It starts the rebol-Interpreter and adds a (very simple) 'call function to
it. You can now type
call "kedit commander.c"
to open kedit with the source-code ;)
How it works:
commander startes REBOL faking a console stream to it. It reads REBOLs
output to find character 0 (ZERO)s in it. Commands are marked
^@command^@
They are executed (in background).
So DON'T OUTPUT CHARACTER ZERO WHEN YOU USE COMMANDER at the moment.
Planned is to add full support of call like in /command and to replace
system/ports/output by a port which escapes character zero so commander
will be absolute transpartent.
Oh, use at your own risk and read the sourcecode:
