>Does that look reasonable? Yes, looks good. >I kept About... in system as I think it has not much to do with Help but >more with System. Tested with a non-Smalltalk person this morning and yes - she expected it under "System". Maybe because I asked "where to find informations about the system"... So +1 from me here too 100 timesRepeat: [ (Message named: 'Thx') sendTo: #Adrian ] Thx T. -- GRATIS fÃ¼r alle GMX-Mitglieder: Die maxdome Movie-FLAT!

[Pharo-project] PPFlattenParser fix
by Ross Boylan June 15, 2010

June 15, 2010

The original parseOn: code failed for me with a FileStream in the Pharo 1.0 image. The last line gets the collection of the stream, and this is nil (or something that didn't work in the invoked method). I've attached a revision that works for me. Ross

[Pharo-project] Unwind errors: worse in 1.1?
by Schwab,Wilhelm K June 15, 2010

June 15, 2010

I have long intermittently seen errors with walkbacks titled "Unwind error during termination." They might be more common in 1.1, and worse, I am now unable to close the offending notifiers/debuggers. I also tried "close all debuggers" without success. Bill

[Pharo-project] Help menu disappeared [WAS] [ANN] Pharo-1.1-11400-rc1dev10.06.1

Hi Stef, >do you think that all the good energy that we put on pharo can be summarized >that way? No, why do you think so? Please dont get off-topic. We talk about a menu here - nobody lamented about Pharo in general. Please reread what I wrote: "Moving menues around is throwing eggs onto you end users" I think it was clear from my mail that moving KNOWN menues around from time to time is IMHO a bad idea. Maybe you disagree, but I'm still keep this opinion. So I dislike the idea of leaving it for now and MOVE the Help menu LATER (as Adrian suggested) since this is what confuses people, especially since user help is something really important. We can discuss it now, keep it or fix it. So we can avoid that moving menues from time to time will lead to irritation. >We waited a bit until we got more convinced that we should move it Second time you write "we". For me it is still not clear who discussed it (you and Adrian?) and where and which arguments lead to the decision. Please tell us so we can also understand your point of view.

Thanks!! -----Original Message----- From: Masashi Umezawa [mailto:umejava@mars.dti.ne.jp] Sent: Monday, June 14, 2010 9:44 AM To: Schwab,Wilhelm K Cc: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Subject: Re: [SIXX] feedback Hello Bill, Thanks for the feedback. I've fixed old underscore assignments. The latest development version is available at: http://squeaksource.blueplane.jp/SIXX.html Currently, I'm integrating XMLPullParser patches, so the source is not so well organized. But all assignments are now ANSI-style anyway. ;-) Best regards, Schwab,Wilhelm K <bschwab(a)anest.ufl.edu> wrote: > Masashi, > > I have been trying to do some testing of Pharo 1.1 through a Seaside 3.0 daily image. One of the first things I load is SIXX. Pharo has been addressing underscore assignment problems, and the default is now to treat them as syntax errors, and one was identified in SixxAutoMorphMemento class>>release. I have also noted them in the #instDict and #instDict: accessors. > > It would be helpful if you could change the underscores to := for future releases.
