Hello Steven,
When you "encap" a script, it's not executed by the normal rebol/view
but by rebol/face wich is rebol/view without many mezzanine functions.
You have to include them with your script with the #include command
(which is preprocessed before the encapping process).
Simply add this line at top of your script and the encapped version will
work.
#include %../source/view.r
(in your case, path will certainly differs and must point to the source
directory supplied with your SDK)
But usually you have to include more mezzanine functions. More
informations about this in the documentation here :
http://www.rebol.com/docs/sdk/kernels.html
I Hope it will help.
