rebol file autoexecution in mac osx
Is it possible to run rebel script directly by clicking the file on MAC osx , without the trouble of opening the view or code terminal first ?

Yes, if you insert a shebang line at the beginning, making it run like a bash script:
#!/usr/local/bin/rebol -qs
Change the path to rebol to whatever your path is.
Then in the terminal or from Finder, set the permissions to 744:
chmod 744 my-script.r
so the script becomes executable to yourself.
In Finder, set the "Open With:" to Terminal.
If you want to run it from terminal, go to the script directory and type:
./my-script.r

Henrik, do you mind if I add that to re-bol.com?

Thanks, it worked. But the terminal window showed up everytime while executing the file, how to run without it like .pyw file?

That's an anomaly of the current Mac version. I don't think there's a way around it.

MaxV, have you used DropScript? Which Mac OS versions does it work on? Very cool find :)
