>> trim/head/with "0000ff00" "0"
** Script Error: Invalid path value: with ** Near: trim/head/with "0000ff00" "0" Marcus ------------------------------------ If you find that life spits on you calm down and pretend it's raining

Looks like a bug with 'trim. I'll send it to [feedback--rebol--com] Andrew Martin ICQ: 26227169 http://valley.150m.com/

I'd say it's more a design flaw, as help says /with is the same as /all, which makes using it with /head a bit contradictory... USAGE: TRIM series /head /tail /auto /lines /all /with str DESCRIPTION: Removes whitespace from a string. Default removes from head and tail. TRIM is an action value. ARGUMENTS: series -- (Type: series port) REFINEMENTS: /head -- Removes only from the head. /tail -- Removes only from the tail. /auto -- Auto indents lines relative to first line. /lines -- Removes all line breaks and extra spaces. /all -- Removes all whitespace. /with str -- Same as /all, but removes characters in 'str'. (Type: char string) It'd make more sense if /with just replaced removing whitespace with removing str. Very odd that it doesn't, actually...
