Elan's update-scripts.r

Dear Elan,
I bought your book, and am trying to learn REBOL. I am trying to update
the scripts in your book by using update-scripts.r. I get the following error:
>> do %update-scripts.r
Script: "REBOL Book Script Updater" (10-May-2000)
connecting to: www.commercebox.com
** User Error: Error. Target url:
http://www.commercebox.com/rebol-book/rebol-book.xip could not be
retrieved. Server response
: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found.
** Where: write/binary %official-guide-update.xip read/binary
http://www.commercebox.com/rebol-book/rebol-book.xip
do
>>
Any idea what is wrong?
Thanks,
Louis
PS I like your book.

Hi,
thanks for buying the book. I hope you will find it helpful.
Unfortunately I no longer have access to the www.commercebox.com site,
where my script was originally hosted. You can reach me directly at my
email address ([rebol--techscribe--com]). I do have some bug fixes for
chapter 7 (errors were introduced during the formatting of the scripts
and these errors migrated to the scripts as they exist on the CD ROM).
I have a few more people waiting for these bug fixes and I'll send them
out together. Also there is a (extremely low bandwidth, 1 email every 3
months approximately ;-) mailing list hosted on yahoo (formerly egroups)
for the book.
Please send me a private email and let me know if you prefer the chapter
7 scripts in MS Windows (zip) format, or gzip'd for Linux. If you want
me to register you with the mailing list, please let me know that as
well. mailto:[rebol--techscribe--com]
Take Care,
Elan
