Anton: I went back and installed this version of Rebol:
REBOL/View 1.3.2.3.1 5-Dec-2005 Core 2.6.3
The result was a return to perfect execution including the original 'if'....'
statement as written.
I might add that I got Rebol 2.7.6 to run the script by substituting the
'empty?' approach to test the one character field (rather than 'if')....it
wrote the output file as desired.
BUT, there is no comparison whatever between the contents of the output file as
written by 2.7.6 and the one written with the version noted above. The 2.7.6
version is an abomination while the 1.3.2.3.1 version is exactly what is
expected when executing the statements contained in the script. You can do
the same....I sent you the script and the input file.

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 ?

Bugs cannot hide forever.

Anton.
