Out of curiosity, do you also have the /View beta? On Windows, on 3 occasions after inadvertantly locking up /View, then neither /View nor /Core (2.3 and 2.4) would start-up (they all would just briefly flash on the screen and disappear). Ultimately, the only way I could get anything to work was to manually remove REBOL entries in the registry. then do a fresh reinstall of REBOL/View. I guess Mac doesn't have an equivalent of the Registry (to their credit :-), but I assume it has some method of associating executable file-types to the executable program. Just hypothesizing out loud.... --Scott Jones

theres no /View for the macOS, RT never released any beta of /View for the MacOS... But it's the same problem it flashes than goes to neverland. There are ways in MacOS to create persistent data like the registry, but not a registry, i might be someting inside system folder... i do not know... well, i guess i will continue to use AppleScript till RT provide me with some working thing.

Andre, I will try installing core 2.5 at work tomorrow on a ppc mac, if I get time. I will let you know how it goes. Anton.

Andre, REBOL/Core 2.5 is a full release product and therefore does not have an expiration date. It must be caused by something else... -Bo On 27-Mar-2001/20:29:59+8:00, [soapdog--mac--com] wrote:

How are you launching it? If you are running a script, add HALT as the last line and see what you get. Cheers Allen K
