[Pharo-project] NBS-ISCC Color Names

by Ken Dickey

Greetings, I don't know if anyone is interested, but PharoInbox now contains a change set, Graphics-KenDickey.131, which adds Color names based on NBS-ISCC Color Centroids as described in: http://people.csail.mit.edu/jaffer/Color/Dictionaries After the change set has been filed in, one should invoke "Color initializeNames" in a workspace. "Color explore" and look at the pool dictionary for swatches and details. This set of Color names has the properties: * explicit and non-restrictive copyright and license (below) * no name conflicts between colors * color names are specific to surface colors or lighting * colors are distributed to equalize perceptual distances between them and * colors are derived from matching physical samples In particular, the licence is " Copyright \251 2003 Voluntocracy. Permission is granted to copy and distribute modified or unmodified versions of this color dictionary provided the copyright notice and this permission notice are preserved on all copies and the entire such work is distributed under the terms of a permission notice identical to this one. " Cheers, -KenD

Though no doubt someone is waiting to prove me wrong :) BTW, I just read about an embedded processor with 32 bit pointers, 32 bit integers but 40 bit(!) longs. Now that's nasty.

Re: [Pharo-project] contents of file

by Tudor Girba

Lukas pointed me to CrLfFileStream which seems to do the job: (CrLfFileStream readOnlyFileNamed: fullPath) contentsOfEntireFile Also, it looks like readOnlyFileFullyNamed: is an extension and that I should use readOnlyFileNamed: Please tell me if I am missing something else.

[Pharo-project] contents of file

by Tudor Girba

Hi, I want to obtain the contents of a file. I am doing the followings: (FileStream readOnlyFileFullyNamed: fullPath) contentsOfEntireFile However, what I get is a string with tabs instead of new lines. I am on a Mac, and the file I am using is UTF8 using LF. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

[Pharo-project] Fixes for image segments

by Nicolas Cellier

I just fixed Symbol allInstances -> Symbol allSymbols in http://source.squeak.org/trunk/System-nice.148.mcz This was already in Pharo I think, however, Eliot did some other changes that might be worth to check.
