Patches and Enhancements
[1/1] from: al::bri::xtra::co::nz at: 1-Oct-2000 18:55
I've written up some Patches and Enhancements to Rebol, and have posted them
to the 'net here:
http://members.nbci.com/AndrewMartin/Rebol/
Just copy the directories and files to your own machine, and put these
lines:
do %/c/Rebol/Patch/Patches.r
do %/c/Rebol/Enhancement/Enhancements.r
in your %user.r file, to have these Patches and Enhancements added to
your Rebol.
Both Patches and Enhancements can be inspected inside Rebol like this:
>> probe Patches
make object! [
Directory: %/c/Rebol/Patch/Patches/
Files: [%Script.r %append.r %http user agent.r %Source.r]
]
>> probe Enhancements
make object! [
Directory: %/c/Rebol/Enhancement/Enhancements/
Files: [%Dir.r %Cls.r]
]
To add a new Patch or Enhancement, simply copy an existing one, change the
name, delete the old code and add new code, then save as a new file into the
Patches or Enhancements directory. Note that it's important the Rebol Header
file name matches exactly the file name, and the Rebol Header name matches
exactly a new field called either Patch or Enhancement. When Rebol is
restarted, the new Patch or Enhancement is automatically included.
If you've got any favoured patches you like to see included in Rebol, send
them to me either through the list or directly and I'll update my site to
reflect that.
Comments, additions, alterations, suggestions, etc are all welcomed.
