hi, with linux 12.04 flavor of Ubuntu. I try ./rebol and get: ** User Error: Bad face in screen pane! ** Near: size-text self user1@linux1:~/rebol$ How do I start the console?
Sorry about the title.
If you're trying Rebol/View, you can try: rebol -iv The options are explained if you run as: rebol -?
Have you used these? http://www.maxvessi.net/rebsite/Linux/

You have to install these two fonts: xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi Then it should work. Regards, John.
I use this, in the user.r file think it was written by Cyphre: set-default-font: func [ "sets default font for /View" font-blk [block! word!] "block of font attributes" ][ system/standard/face/font: make system/standard/face/font font-blk system/view/vid/vid-face/font: make system/view/vid/vid-face/font font-blk foreach [w s] system/view/vid/vid-styles [s/font: make s/font font-blk] ] set-default-font [ name: "DejaVu Sans" ;"tahoma" style: none size: 12 color: brown offset: 2x2 space: 0x0 align: 'left valign: 'center shadow: none ] and then paste the set-default-font block at the top of your script for script specific font
