It's possible in REBOL 3 to calculate a SHA1 module checksum. When REBOL loads a module, it compares its checksum against the checksum of the loaded module, and if the two do not match, an error is generated, viz. access error: invalid checksum (tampered file). No matter how I try, I can't seem to create a module checksum that REBOL 3 l...
I want to create a do-libs generic function to automatically load a bunch of libs listed in rebol header files. I want to make the parameter optional but in that later case it doesn't work why ?

I agree with Carl that XML is too much verbose compared to Rebol's Block but there is no equivalent of XML DOM library for Rebol's Block or am I mistaken ? How can I iterate through a hierarchy of block ? ...

Taken from http://www.rebol.com/docs/view-system.html#section-4: In some cases you may want to view a window but continue evaluating code after the window is open. You can do that by specifying the new refinement. Here is an example: print "opening window..." view/new make face [ offset: 100x100 color: papaya te...
