The Rebol Week

In the wild REBOL/Services Overview Henrik has posted a short how-to guide for getting up to speed with REBOL/LNS (RebServices) HMK Design Blog Nicomdb John Geomol Niclasen merges the NicomDB into one script. nicomdb More John. :) Geomol has also published a link to a IFF ILMB loader. Electronic Arts IFF ILBM loader: iff.r Can handle 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32 color images, HAM6 images (4096 colors) and HALFBRITE (64 colors). HALFBRITE hasn't been tested yet, as I couldn't find such an image easily. Handle both compressed and non-compressed images. This is an example, where rebcode would help a lot, as a 320x200 image can take several seconds to uncompress. Usage: iff-image: load-iff %some_picture.iff img: iff-image/as-image img now is a REBOL image!, than can be viewed like: view layout [image img] TRETBASE looking for testers If you visit Altme REBOL3, check out the TRETBASE forum. This is a little engine that could. db/search test [[age = 40][n r now/time/precise]] Returns a data...

REBOL 2.7.6 Released Yes, we do have a 2.7.6 release. The release page details the changes found in this latest incarnation. As of this date, only Windows 32 and Linux builds are available, but OSX, and Solaris core are following. Also, there is likely to be a special build with Rebcode enabled. The SDKs also include encmdview which I don't think I've seen since before 2005! Of course this has impacted a little on REBOL3 development but the intention is to try and work on enhancements for REBOL2 that will also improve REBOL3. IMAP? Gabriele let slip that he has developed de-novo a new protocol for handling IMAP to help qtask provide webmail. The current REBOL2 IMAP protocol basically just gives the same level of functionality as POP3, but Gabriele's work is much more comprehensive, and he claims that qtask's email manager is now close to the functionality of Thunderbird. The even better news is that he hopes to use most of this code for REBOL3. DOM Level 3 Imple...

Peter Wood brings great news on his efforts with Olivier Auverlot to translate the book 'REBOL - A Programmer's Guide's into English. == In March 2007, Olivier Auverlot published his second major book on ÒREBOL Ð Guide du programmeurÓ. Written in his native French the book has been well received, not least by Carl Sassenrath: ÒYes, Olivier has done it again with another good book on REBOL.Ó Olivier and I have been working on an English translation, "REBOL - a programmer's guide" for a little while now. The book will eventually be published in both printed and electronic form on lulu.com. The prices are likely to be Euro 25.00 for the printed edition and Euro 16.99 for the portable document format version (pdf) version. (For those of you outside the Euro zone, Lulu also provides prices in Pounds Sterling and US Dollars.) As the translation is likely to take some time to complete, we are providing exclusive previews of each chapter for those who don't want...
