Hi Eric,
Empty? isn't a synonym for tail?, as far as I know. Your example is a weird
construction, because if I try to test empty? with tail I do this:
>> test: [1 2 3]
== [1 2 3]
>> tail test
== []
>> empty? test
== false
Why do you do:
> >> test-block: tail [1 2 3 4 5]
It strikes me strange

Why not let the color mapping be down a path from the 'system object?

Hi Gabriele,
someone once said "Great minds think alike". There is also another saying:
"Fools seldom differ." In either case, I concur with your observations. I

You may want to grab the multipart/mime decoder off of rebol.org that handles this

I don't know about anyone else, but I'd be happy with a beta release that
runs on my Psion 5mx, even if it didn't support console operations or
networking. At least I could play with scripting while curled up on the sofa
instead of sitting in a cold room in front of a PC (sad, I know...)

I'll answer this one. The port is underway... and it is running to a degree. There are
some console and networking issues that are being worked out. It is a high priority,
so you can expect to see it soon.

REBOL said they'll provide the all-in-one html file; other than
that, I think the best is providing a PDF *AND* a PS version.
Postscript file can be easyly viewed and printed on the Amiga too.

Yes. But you'd need some javascripts on the browser to make it

What platforms? I
So, I waited and waited and now I'll ask again:
When will Rebol be on Psion's S5 - or is it already ported ?

Sadly, most of the formatting features are not implemented (yet), so it wouldnt be the
best choice if we're trying to render a typeset manual online. At this point, AbiWord

Hi,
below some funcs and a mechanism to avoid name clobbering:
if you execute this script and you already have defined some words
this script wants to introduce, you will be asked if you want to abort
the execution before your definitions would be lost.
Any suggestions are welcomed,
