I'm guessing here: REBOL/View is in one location and the script you want to
run is in another. In the REBOL console, try:
what-dir
to check your current directory. and then
change-dir /xxx/xxx/xxx
to change it to where the script you want to execute is.
'Do should now work -- but you may get a security warning as you are trying
to execute a script outside of the "sandbox" (ie the folder that REBOL.exe is
in, or any of its children).
If you have downloaded library.r from REBOL.org and put it in (say)
/rebol-lib, then you can:
1. do /rebol-lib/library.r -- to unpack all the scripts and build the search
indexes. Then after that:
2. do /rebol-lib/run-librarian.r -- to run the librarian front end
3. do /rebol-lib/scripts/xxxx -- to run a script in the library
Good luck!
Sunanda.
