Hi Carl,

Hmm, indeed looking at the source:
>> source set-font
set-font: func [aface 'word val][
if none? aface/font [aface/font: vid-face/font]
if not flag-face? aface font [aface/font: make aface/font [] flag-face aface font]
either word = 'style [
if none? aface/font/style [aface/font/style: copy []]
if word? aface/font/style [aface/font/style: reduce [aface/font/style]]
aface/font/style: union aface/font/style reduce [val]
] [set in aface/font word val]
]
seems like they forgot the case when one sets the style to none.

Of course, that's the way to go if you have already cloned the
font object. However I'd suggest to flag the face in that case, so
that it is not cloned again and again.
In the case when you don't know if the object has been cloned or
not, of course the safest way is to clone it always; the most
efficient is probably doing something like SET-FONT, however.

I didn't test it, sorry.

Doesn't like so, by looking at the source above.
BTW, is [feedback--rebol--com] working? I miss the times when you got
back a ticket number immediately, and a message from Bo the day
after...
Regards,
Gabriele.
