Hello [EMAIL PROTECTED],
Try this then:
(copy the intended lines of code to a file and 'do it, or type it directly
at the rebol console)
REBOL []
file: open %test.txt ; file content is "TEST1TEST2TEST3TEST4TEST5"
record-size: 5 ; in this case the record size is 5
while [not tail? file] [
print (copy/part file record-size) ; parens not nessesary,
; but helps reading
file: skip file record-size
]
close file
Best regards
Thomas Jensen
