AltME: R3 Protocols

@Luis .. I think the issues you were having with ftp protocol on Android are related to the alpha event handling on Android.
Cyphre could confirm.

Graham, it could be...Luis, if you have any simple test script (preferably using some free test ftp account so I don't need to create one) I could quickly try here to see what's goign on.

Cyphre: I am using http://www.byethost.com/ (you can register using  www.10minutemail.com  ) only need change line at https://github.com/gchiu/Rebol3/blob/master/protocols/prot-ftp.r#L583 .

I'd like to modify the http protocol so that I can do this
page: write http://www.rebol.com [ headers GET / ]
so that I return the headers and body.  Any thoughts on this?
Obviously the main idea is to be able to grab the cookies.
If people think this is worthwhile, I'll make a PR on one of the Rebol3 repos that is being actively maintained
Maxim
I think its a good idea (actually, almost essential in today's web environment) .
Maxim
when doing a successive read, there should also be a transparent way to modify and re-submit the same cookies... say, by adding a cookies attribute to the http port and maybe a few functions for modifying them (add, redate, update)
Cyphre
Luis, thanks...will give it a try hopefully soon.
GrahamC
@Maxim, I can't see how you'd do this using successive reads since the http protocol doesn't preserve state.  and currently if you open a port, you lose access to the write dialect.

GrahamC
write http://www.rebol.com [ HEAD / ]
now returns the last modified date correctly
Added a 'headers keyword in the write dialect to return the headers
page: write http://curecode.org/rebol3/view-tickets.rsp [ headers GET / ]
page/spec/debug/headers will now contain the headers for the page returned, including the cookies
and page/data will contain the web page data

Hi Folks, How can I  use the https using R3. I'm using the saphirion Core distribution. Any tips?
I was using Rebol Commnad before but now I'm receiving the error .
Command Error: SSL error: error:14077410:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:sslv3 alert handshake failure
Rondon
I'm on Ubuntu linux 12.04 distro.

GrahamC
So, are you saying Rebol/command has stopped working?

Rondon
it hasn't stopped working, but https couldn't work on SSLv3
I saw your github with r3 protocols, do you have plans for https? I'm gonna try a workout using Curl from rebol.
to handle https
