%user.r
[1/9] from: maillist::peter::home::se at: 11-Oct-2005 8:28
Hello!
Sorry if this has been covered many times.
I just noticed that when I upgraded from REBOL/Core 2.5.6.4.2
to REBOL/Core 2.6.0.4.2 it does no longer read the %user.r
file located in the current directory.
What's the correct location for %user.r?
Best regards,
Peter

You can find it in your user directory (on windows it is C:\Documents
and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Rebol)
HTH!!

Has this changed between 2.5.x and 2.6.x since I have
always had the file in the current directory?

Yes, it changed. The change was made to better support multi-user
environments. This way if you have more than one user that uses rebol
frequently then they can each have their own startup script and
sandbox as the sandbox has been moved to the user's home directory as
well.

Note, that's View, not Core.

I think it is also true for Core as it was there I noticed it. Right?
There should not be different files for Core and View I think.

It appears that Core will use user.r in the current directory if it is
there, if not it doesn't appear to use any user.r so it seems that
just View uses the user.r in your home directory.

When I switched from REBOL/Core 2.5.6.4.2 to 2.6.0.4.2 I had
to move my %user.r from current directory to ~/ on my Linux
system. Otherwise it wouldn't load at startup.

It's not that there are different files, it's that View has an
installer, while Core doesn't. I think Core just looks in the same
dir as rebol.exe and in your home dir, while View looks wherever
you have specified during installation.
Regards,
Gabriele.
