[Pharo-project] Vision
by StÃ©phane Ducasse Jan. 29, 2011

Jan. 29, 2011

Hi guys Some days ago we were chatting with igor and he made an interesting remark about a kind of hidden philosophy behind pharo: the idea that we systematically want to make the system better. In fact I realized that what we are doing is to make a system nice, robust and powerful so that everybody can use to realize their goals. But we want to have a system where not only smart guys can manage to do something with it but also less talented people like me (I know that some of you will say but stef you are good, I'm a newbie in a lot of domains but I learn fast if I can get a chance to avoid to bump on the walls). I want a system that let me learn from itself. I think that lot of things fall naturally in place from this vision (documentation, oo practices - not having car inheriting from wheel, tests comments, adequate abstractions, modularity). I want a system that everybody can nicely build his own software. So in short I want pharo to be like a nice garden with greenhouses for building new garden with tools versus a jungle where only skilled adventurers can make it through. Stef

[Pharo-project] Issue 3592 in pharo: MenuMorph uses action: and selector: to mean the same thing
by pharo＠googlecode.com Jan. 29, 2011

Jan. 29, 2011

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 3592 by sean.p.d...(a)gmail.com: MenuMorph uses action: and selector: to mean the same thing http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3592 e.g. MenuMorph #add:target:action: and #add:target:selector: do the same thing and should be merged. Any preference? I think action is more intention revealing How about #add:sending:to:, which from the API user's perspective would look like: menu add: 'New instance creation method' sending: #addInstanceCreationMethod to: self.
