[REBOL] Re: Periods as parts of rebol words?
From: ryanc:iesco-dms at: 10-May-2002 17:09
Tim,
After your all done coding just run this...
--------
rebol []
script: read file: request-file/only
forall script [
all [
script/1 = #"."
script/2 <> #"^""
script/2 <> #"{"
script/2 <> #" "
script/2 <> #"."
script/1: #"-"
]
]
write file head script
--------
Not the "right" way, but it was particularly easy. --Ryan
PS: And yes, periods are totally allowable in words.
