Can someone try this out in 1.2 ? Start up View click on Rebol.com click on Sites Enter any site not your own click on console type "desktop" click on Local Up pops an error message Cannot open folder: http://wwww.whateversiteyouclickedon/local/index.r Using NT4.0 -- Graham Chiu

I get the exact same error with Amiga View, Graham. One for feedback, I think.

Ditto for the glibc2 x86 linux version also. Deryk -- Binary/unsupported file stripped by Listar -- -- Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature -- File: smime.p7s -- Desc: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

I have View configured to connect on startup. That (the connection attempt) now consistently fails. This has just occurred on the same box I'm using to read/send email, so I know the box is 'net connected. In addition, when I go to the console, I can type read http://... ; a url on my intranet and it succeeds. However read http://www.rebol.com/ times out. Hmmmm... Gremlins back at home base??? -jn-

Hi Graham, Got the same on W98, but seems to be platform independent ; try this which has a similar behaviour Add in desktop/services.r : service "Edit" %edit.r Start up View and launch "Edit" OK Click Local folder and launch "Edit" again : Missing file: /c/program files/rebol/view/local/edit.r The path is relative to view folder ! For the console, found in desktop/bookmarks : file "Console" console icon console Is it possible to change any path for console, referring perhaps to an environment variable ? (rebols absolute install path ?) Bye, hope it helps. Ronald
