AltME: RebolBot

Messages

It's a good idea to have R2 evaluation as well, but I would default to R3 .
Wouldn't the issues on GitHub be a better place for suggestions or improvements. RebolBot issues could be prefixed with [RebolBot][wish/bug/etc]

not everyone has a github account .. so those that don't can post here.
AdrianS
You're right, but it should probably still the the official place to track issue, no? I mean as opposed to this being the place. I would hope that non-Rebol (and maybe non-dev) people take some interest in the bot and I don't know how much sense it would make to have them come here to log issues or feature requests.

Graham: if you would make backends for other languages (using http://repl.it to run the code), you could easily sell it to other SO chat rooms. ;-)
GrahamC
Interesting idea :)
ok, got rebol2 up and running as well
do => rebol3
do/2 => rebol2

REPL.it runs client side in JavaScript, so no dice
DocKimbel
Forgot about that. Anyway most of mainstream scripting languages have a web-based console available.
Kaj
And a remote API?
GrahamC
I'm waiting for do/red ...
DocKimbel
Most don't have an API, but usually, you can hook to their JS API.
JS API: I mean their server-side API used by JS.
do/red: me too. :)
Kaj
Easy, easy, spent all week setting up an environment for fixing the exising networking examples on Windows

Kaj: what feature is missing to make a TryRed?
Kaj
48 hours in a day?
GrahamC
that's 2 days
Kaj
Yes, that's the problem :-)
If you want a missing feature in Red, that would be the lexer, currently without paths and refinements
