Hi, P-O,
For what its worth, I tried your minimal test script on my Win98, Apache
1.3.14, RBOL/Core 2.3.0.3.1 local testbed, and it worked fine. So there
seems to be some sort of problem more specific to your platform and/or
set up. I doubt that this is the problem but only one additional
newline is needed, since 'print already supplies one. Again, this won't
seem to be the likely cause. Perhaps an Amigan-Apache-REBOLer could
test your script. Good luck.
