I would like you to answer these 2 questions:
1) *Which version* of Rebol is the version you used before ?
2) What is the console output of the following code,
as run in the older version *and* in Rebol/View 2.7.6 ?
(probe substr (probe rec1) (y + j) + 2054 1) > " "
Bugs cannot hide forever.

Anton.
But don't we agree that the #(20) indicates a space character (ASCII) ?
