Mezzanine / Native?

 [1/10] from: tim::johnsons-web::com at: 12-Feb-2003 12:12


Two related Issues: 1)Anyone have a suggestion as to how to get a list of rebol words that are mezzanine functions? 2)And the following console session has got me bewildered:
>> help print
USAGE: PRINT value DESCRIPTION: Outputs a value followed by a line break. PRINT is a native value. ARGUMENTS: value -- The value to print (Type: any)
>> native? 'print
== false ; say WHAT? What's up with that? rebol just told ; me that 'print is native. <!-- DUH --> any ideas on that one? thnx n adv -- Tim Johnson <[tim--johnsons-web--com]> http://www.alaska-internet-solutions.com http://www.johnsons-web.com

I'm sure somebody will post something better, but this might get you started. i: 0 foreach word first system/words [ if all [value? w: to word! :word function? get w] [ i: i + 1 print [i word] ] ] TJ> 2)And the following console session has got me bewildered:

Thanks Carl: Now, how about the mezzanine part? I'm presuming that if it isn't native, it's mezzanine. Tell me if I'm wrong. :-) -tj-

Try this:

There are also other native types, like op! and action! Bohdan "Bo" Lechnowsky Lechnowsky Technical Consulting At 12:12 PM 2/12/03 -0900, you wrote:

But, is there a way to just get a list of rebol words that are mezzanine (have source code)? I hope I'm being a little clearer. cheers -tim-

Tim,
> help function!
But remember that a lot of mezzanine functions related to VID are bound to a context inside the system object, so they can be difficult to modify. -Bo At 06:31 PM 2/12/03 -0900, you wrote:

Thanks Bo! That's the ticket.

Not a problem. Just wanted a way to show students what 'internal' rebol code looks like. cheers -tim-
