I got it to work by jumping into the
slashdot-viewer/ directory that it creates
and doing the viewers. Nice stuff.
By the way, I would suggest to create the
directory in the public cache, not in the
current directory.
If some idiot like me runs the script from
the console, all your files end up in the
current directory, wherever that might be.
This example creates the directory in the public cache:
site: http://www.stuff.mynetcologne.de/reb/slashdot/
make-dir/deep public-dir: path-thru site/slashdot-viewer
; Now save & access your files in public-dir.
This has the advantage that the script is always certain where
the slash-viewer/ directory is.
Oh, of course, by default, 'cp is an alias of 'copy, in
rebol, so as I have redefined 'cp it broke the script.
I didn't see many people using 'cp until now.
Regards,
Anton.

Subject: [REBOL] Re: announce: slashdot-viewer
Almost for me. I will try again. I ran it in console of
REBOL/View 1.2.5.3.1 6-May-2002.
It downloaded a whole bunch of stuff, showing
a "dyna-gui" with "happy birthday code red" in it.
Then bombed out with this (you can see my file copy
function 'cp, is already defined):
>> do http://www.stuff.mynetcologne.de/reb/slashdot/slashdot-viewer.r
** Script Error: cp expected original argument of type: file
