Does r3 on android allow to read write local files? I tried but I get an error.

CelesteM

Hi, is there a way to intecept new data on the windows clipboard and read it ?
Gregg
I don't recall of any old notification hooks for it. You might have to poll.
Bo
I'm sure there is a .dll to do that, but it would involve a callback, I'm sure.

GiuseppeC
I have resolved the situation in a different way, without rebol.
Gregg
How did you do it Giuseppe?
GiuseppeC
Hi Greg, I had to download the elements of a web table and put it inside a database.
Excel did the job for me. I have learnt it could query a multipage table and write the columns on the current sheed.
I was able to finish a multy day job in just 5 minutes.

In the past years, someone gave me a ULTRAEDIT wordfile for REBOL.I don't' remember if version 2 or 3.
I have lost the file but I don't remember the person.
Could someone help ?

Gregg
Might have been me. I'm signing off right now, but ping me and I'll send you my UE REBOL stuff.

might be me too...  but mine is highly customized... not very usefull anymore.
(for someone other than me)

Is there a good reason for ROUND to return a decimal! instead of an integer! like it does in Rebol2?
Rebol3:
>> round 2.3
== 2.0
Rebol2
>> round 2.3
== 2
Endo
Help text says "ROUND returns the nearest integer" but it doesn't always return an integer: May be he thought that its better to keep the datatype of the return value same:
>> round/to 1.987 0.37
== 1.85
DocKimbel
There's no mention of the return type in the R3 version of ROUND docstrings.
Endo
It is on R2.
Gregg
Using /TO changes the result type, but with out it ROUND always returns an integer, correct? If so, the help string for /TO implicitly covers it I think.
But, for Doc, I don't know a good reason to change it. Do you have one?
Endo
Correct, returns integer for all other refinements.
Gregg
As you know, one of the reasons to return an integer was for use with loops.
