02:04this works from  2.7.8.3.1   get-env "%userprofile%"  but in my SdK I get none.
Ideas

02:24ah.. works without the %

02:24so small difference between the sdk and core

07:02Here is working example on Win7:
stdout: make string! 255
call/wait/output rejoin [to-local-file system/options/path %\extract.exe " mypassword"] stdout

I remember that CALL supports rebol style file names, but it sometimes fail to run the app. So to put TO-LOCAL-FILE is good.
But in this example extract.exe is a Win32 application that outputs to stdout, not a real DOS app. This might be a difference.

15:42Max,

Edgar

15:46try this; outfile, infile, errfile are filepath
cmd: "someexeprog.exe < to-local-file to-file infile > to-local-file to-file outfile 2> to-local-file to-file errfile"
call/wait cmd

15:48If you don't want any filepath, replace them with NUL

Edgar

15:59;correction
outfile: to-local-file to-file "outfile.txt" infile: to-local-file to-file "infile.txt" errfile: to-local-file to-file "errfile.txt"
cmd: rejoin [{someexeprog.exe < } infile { > } outfile { 2> } errfile]
call/wait cmd

15:59unfortunately, I can't use temp files (though your suggestion does work, I had looked at doing this too  ;-)

16:00but as I said above, using cheyenne's win-call and pre-pending "CMD /C"  (which is what /shell basically does) works out great.

Edgar

16:01But doesn't that open a console window.

Maxim

16:02nope since I'm not using /show

Edgar

16:02Ok

Maxim

16:03strangely enough adding CMD /C  to  R2's call doesn't fix anyth

16:04anything, so I guess the parameters being used by win-call when the launch process is being done are different.

17:54Did Carl release the CALL source at one point, to get input and help on it?

Kaj

19:05Only talked about that, I think

07:36Anybody ever tried signing an encapped REBOL binary (R2) for the Mac? With Gatekeeper coming distribution of REBOL application will be dead in the water. OTOH: if we can get it working, I see a productivity boon for a whole suite of Desktop "Apps".

21:31Wow. I hadn't seen Gatekeeper. My first thought is that it's less about security than it is about control and revenue, but I could be wrong. Security is good. It seems clear that as things change, "legacy " doesn't mean "really old" anymore.

Arnold

21:46Any additional information what this is exactly about please? (I know of a Gatekeeper script to password protect/hide a directory)

Gregg

21:48Gatekeeper is their new security system, to keep out malware (and maybe anything else they don't want).
