Will,
>From what I've seen on scripting.com, they have found a way of getting the
browser to keep the http connection open. This effectively (according to my sources) turns the browser into a servent (server/client) in one package. This should allow them to have long running client side apps that continuously communicate with the server, which using DTML should allow for parts of a page to be updated as-and-when. This is in a nutshell of course, there's probably more to it. See ya Phil [phil--harris--zope--co--uk]

I suggested to About.com that they include a section on REBOL and I offered to be the guide, but here is the response... Thank you for your topic suggestion REBOL. We appreciate your input, but our editorial staff feels that your topic would not work as an individual site at this time. Maybe someday. Ryan C. Christiansen

Hello all, In the document covering Rebol 2.5 changes, I read: TO-LOCAL-FILE and TO-REBOL-FILE functions can be used to convert to and from the local OS file path formats. However, on the console:
>> to-rebol-file "c:\test\"
** Script Error: to-rebol-file has no value fantam -- [fantam--mailandnews--com]

Hello all, The following has more to do with unix than rebol, sorry for that. I'm trying to run rebol on unix and having some trouble. I have shell access on a remote freebsd machine. I uploaded rebol to my home dir, unzipped and untarred it, gave rebol execute permission, but when I type "rebol" or "./rebol" on the command line, the shell says: file not found. What am I missing?

 [8/20] from: jeff:rebol at: 29-Apr-2001 5:43


Howdy, Fantam: Possibly missing ELF support. The FreeBSD box you're on may be an old a.out version. Trying to execute an unsupported binary format often results in that not-so helpful error message (under a number of different unices). What do you see when you type: file ./rebol as opposed to, say: file `which ls` (for example) Which version of FreeBSD? (Try: uname -a) Another option: Are there compatability libraries installed? Do you have a /usr/lib/compat/ directory? (Or compat/ dir under some other /lib directory?) If you have linux binary compatibility there, you may be able to get a libc5 or libc6 linux binary to run. Just a few things to start off with ... -jeff

Install script will overwrite rebol executable if you're not careful. Do a 'ls -l' to check file size !

Hello all, The libc6 version works on this freebsd box. Thanks a zillion, Jeff, I'm happy!!! fantam

Is there a 'frame-buffer' interface under REBOL? If so, what format are the pixels in? * Kokopeli: * ...when he left, the crops were plentiful and all the women were pregnant.

Hi Folks! I decide to buy Rebol. As I have server applications and I want to develop applications for my users: 1. Should I have to buy Rebol/View/Pro and Rebol/Command 2.0? Rebol/View/Pro for end users applications and Rebol/Command 2.0 for my Apache server. 2. What about Rebol/Express that is being released? because it has the server and client, isn't it better than take separately /View/Pro and /Command? 3. I've bought the Rebol/Command_Runtime version 1.0 a time ago. Does it have an upgrade to the new core version of Rebol? 4. To ship a copy to Brazil, how long does it take? I wanna order it today. Thanks in advance Rondon

 [14/20] from: brett:codeconscious at: 27-Jun-2001 22:44


Hi Rondon, There is no one correct answer. Perhaps if you could outline some of the applications, what the users do, etc. people on this list could give you clear ideas for your decision. Brett.

It depends - if you do fill your order before 1st July, you will receive 1 copy of /Command/View (/Command capabilities + View ones, including VID)

What do you want to develop on? Unix? (I assume you are running your Apache server under Unix). So - there is a little bit problem, because once you get your /Command copy, you'll automatically get also /Command/View, but for the same platform. So if you want to develop under Windows and have /Command under Linux, you would be better buying /Command for Linux + View/Pro commercial license for Windows (349 + 99USD). Rebol run-time licensing is not resolved yet, but should be soon, according to Rebol sales support ...

Well, it depends - Express is much more expensive. But it is also different product - it is more collaborative platform, than programming/messaging language. You have client synchronisation available.

You have to ask Rebol sales support, try to send e-mail to: [cindy--rebol--com]

2 - 3 hours? I ordered it yesterday before I left my office, and some few hours ago I turned my home PC on, and private download instructions were waiting for me. Very cool! Cheers, -pekr-

I want to order it today, so I can get the /Command/View. I'll do it right now.

I'm using Unix/OpenBSD and Windows. Windows for client applications and Command at OpenBSD to give access to my CGI applications. What did you think about the performance with FastCCGI ? Does it handle a server stress with multiple connections ?

ok. I'll do it.. But Can I distribute my applications like .exe files encapsulated to my users with View/Pro? or it's 99US$ per user?

I was talking just about technologies, I was thinking that /Express having the client and the server could have higher performance than View/Pro with Command 2.0.

Ok. What about the Manuals, User guides, etc ? Are they included in PDF format ? Best Regards!! Thank you very much for you attention. Rondon

FastCGI seems to be cool concept.You can look for basic characteristics at http://www.fastcgi.com The site structure is pretty narrow, so you will easily find document describing performance of FastCGI.

You can't distribute your Rebol apps as exe files, unless you have Rebol Runtime. It is not available yet, though. 99USD means 99USD per client - full Rebol/View installation.

Manuals are included - html ones though. But you can find most of manuals on Rebol website, including /Command's ones - http://www.rebol.com/docs/cmdug.html -pekr-

I'm very new to Rebol, but it's quickly becoming by language of choice. I'm finding it excellent for prototyping. I'm having difficulty using variable blocks read from a file in 'view'. I'd appreciate any pointers. Thanks.

 [19/20] from: ryanc:iesco-dms at: 28-Jun-2001 10:41


There is a couple of ways to do this, all pretty straight forward. First off though, I am not sure what you mean by "variable blocks." If my answer is not sufficient, you might elaborate on that. Anyhow, here is my shot:
>> ; as an object! >> lives: make object! [cat: 9 dog: 2 mouse: 12 amiga: 256] >> save/header %lives.r lives [] ; saving it with a header makes it 'do-able >> lives/cat: 0
== 0
>> lives: do %lives.r ; without a header you would use lives: do load %lives >> lives/cat
== 9
>> read %lives.r
== {REBOL [] make object! [ cat: 9 dog: 2 mouse: 12 amiga: 256 ]}

Hi As there were a few configurations described for fastcgi with Apache, I will add my working configuration (Linux and Windows). Windows: FastCgiExternalServer "D:/Apache/mydocs/fastcgi-bin" -host localhost:15001 <Location /fastcgi-bin> SetHandler fastcgi-script </Location> ExternalAppClass /fastcgi-bin -host localhost:15001 Unix: Just replace the path after FastCgiExternalServer with your complete path without hyphens to the non-existing location. And don't forget to use getmodes right; cgi-data: get-modes fastcgi-conn 'cgi ; in your Rebol script.
