Bob,
> However when I go to fill in the fields I get this error:
Never tried using it before, but start with selecting the file you wish to
upload to the script file. This will then populate half the fields for you
if your header is written following the usual conventions.
Probably worth dropping a note to feedback about the strange error when
adding the fields manually.

A fair number of the scripts in the library are designed with examples and
do not run when just clicked. The lrwp script has the following lines at
the bottom of the source code (which may be easily viewed by right clicking
on the icon and hitting the edit button)
;The sample:
;The Xitami lrwp agent url
;lrwp-agent-url: tcp://localhost:81
;Register the process for the app "sometest"
;lrwp/register-peer "sometest"
;Get the data
;cgi-data: lrwp/wait-for-action
;cgi-data now contains a block of values that you can use, posted or
;getted, you don't care
;for example make object! cgi-data
;print your result out using
;lrwp/respond my-content
Reading the source code of many of the examples is very useful as they
often include hints on how to use them.

I tend to disagree with this as the View component of Rebol is rather
recent in comparison to the stable, command line based, core component. A
large number of scripts in the library do not use View at all (such as the
lrwp script you mentioned).
I hope this is useful.
