Hi Fernando, Problem with Oxygen is that they are LGPL, which is a "NO" for using inside Pharo (reason is obvious: it's viral) :) (yes, I also do like more Oxygen, but well...)

[Pharo-project] Tirade! (was: Re: About Cypress [Was: Re: [ANN] Styled Text Editor for Cuis 4.0 Smalltalk])

And yet again I point to Tirade :) http://goran.krampe.se/blog/Squeak/Tirade.rdoc http://goran.krampe.se/blog/Squeak/Tirade2.rdoc http://goran.krampe.se/blog/Squeak/Tirade3.rdoc Especially Tirade2 above shows a bit about size (4 classes, 500 loc) speed and portability. Tirade is basically a parser for Smalltalk messages that only are allowed to use literals as arguments (although arbitrarily nested literals). Which is exactly what Stef describes + a bit more. :) regards, GÃ¶ran

When I tried long time ago to load (and I could at then end) all the versions of squeak into VW I faced the problems of the difference in format for floats. So how do you plan to handle that?

Then how do you compile code in Gemstome? Via the command line? As I said if this is only that we can write a parser for literal array. But yo should not say that you need a literal array syntax that support dictionaries because syntax and semantics are two different things. (x 33) (z 24) can be binding for dictionary.

Bernhard and Juan, I was curious enough about Cypress and Cuis to start a Cypress port to Cuis[1].

The API it uses is quite specific to | | Cuis | | so to port it alone is probably too much effort. What I think can | | be | | done is the following: | | Split Cuis into three parts, | | a) the parts which are not needed for Styled Text Editor, like the | | Cuis tools | | b) the parts of Cuis Morphic the Styled Text Editor depends on â | | this | | is in my opinion the most valuable part of Cuis because Juan spent | | years cleaning it | | c) the Smalltalk kernel below | | | | The idea is to port only part b) and the Styled Text Editor. And it | | has to be done automatically by a tool which creates packages for | | Squeak and Pharo, always from the latest code base. In addition you | | will probably need small Cuis portability packages done manually, | | one for Squeak and one for Pharo. | | | | Being able to always load the latest code base of Styled Text | | Editor | | and Cuis Morphic as an external package in Pharo is a prerequisite | | to look into possibilities of sharing more of the code. | | | | I plan to write a more detailed proposal and then to approach ESUG | | and ask for support for the funding. Any ideas for other sources of | | funding are highly welcome and could speed things up considerably, | | of course! ;-) | | | | I for one have not given up on the idea that it might be possible | | to | | develop substantial components as you called it â thank you for | | that | | as well â in a more Squeak-dialect-independent way. ;-) | | | | Finally, I would like to take the opportunity and kindly ask | | everyone | | who has not done so yet: Please check out Cuis 4.0 and the Styled | | Text Editor and give us feedback, even if it does not (yet) run on | | your favourite Squeak dialect! Thank you! | | | | Peace, | | Bernhard | | | | P.S. Thanks to GÃ¶ran and Janko for trying to establish different | | threads for the rather off-topic discussions that my announcement | | posting has caused. | | | | Am 23.04.2012 um 16:04 schrieb GÃ¶ran Krampe: | | > Hi! | | > | | > On 04/23/2012 03:40 PM, StÃ©phane Ducasse wrote: | | >>> Just cloning it off into Pharo and forking seems... less | | >>> optimal. | | >>> Any ideas or thoughts? | | >> | | >> I do not get what you mean.
