Hi list,
how can I convert a DOS-Filename
like E:\P\Rebol\Sendmail\Data\mail.txt
to a REBOL filename
like %/E/P/Rebol/Sendmail/Data/mail.txt
many thanks

Check out http://www.rebol.orgfor a conversion routine.
Or:
>> Dos: "E:\P\Rebol\Sendmail\Data\mail.txt"
== "E:\P\Rebol\Sendmail\Data\mail.txt"
>> replace Dos ":\" "/"
== "E/P\Rebol\Sendmail\Data\mail.txt"
>> replace/all Dos "\" "/"
== "E/P/Rebol/Sendmail/Data/mail.txt"
>> Root: %/
== %/
>> Root/:Dos
== %/E/P/Rebol/Sendmail/Data/mail.txt
might do the trick.
I hope that helps!

I think the new /Core has the conversion functions built-in. Try
with HELP "LOCAL" and you should find them.
