You'll probably have to wait for fixes to direct (non-buffered) file access in REBOL, so you can skip and seek around without loading the whole thing. There was at least one interim build that supported it, before 1.3, so hopefully it won't be too hard for them to finalize and get into a future release. -- Gregg -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to lists at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.
