I am experimenting with that right now. Seems to work. EnvoyÃ© depuis un mobile Samsung Esteban Lorenzano <estebanlm(a)gmail.com> a Ã©critÂ : Hi, you are asking for two things there: -a sound package for pharo 1.4 (I don't know if it exists, and in any case we cannot add it as a core package, you need to install it and see how it works by yourself) -a working sound plugin for iOS. TBH, while I'm including it in regular compilations, I never tested it, so I don't know if is working properly. Of course, to do games and others, is clear that we need a working sound system into iOS... .

[Pharo-project] donating money
by Cameron Sanders June 15, 2012

June 15, 2012

I am under the impression that I can donate money to the Pharo group through gforge.inria.fr. Is it possible to donate with a credit card right through their website? If so, can you please share the link to that page? [My tired eyes are not seeing it today and my searches are failing too.] Thanks in advance. -Cam

[Pharo-project] Smalltalk syntax highlighting for Latex
by Mariano Martinez Peck June 15, 2012

June 15, 2012

Hi guys. I know that: a) for papers we usually write code in black and white and b) even when we may want colors like books or thesis, we still may not want to add colors. Anyway, for my thesis, I do want to make the code a little bit nicer and so I did some Smalltalk syntax highlighting with listings package. Not sure if this would be helpful for someone else, but just in case, I paste at the end the code. Basically, I can detect (and therefore, choose a color/style): globals/classes (start with uppercase), keywords, comments, strings, symbols and numbers. I also attach an screenshot. Cheers btw, thanks to Lukas and Luc for their help. % Source Code \usepackage{color} \usepackage{textcomp} \usepackage{listings} % \usepackage{needspace} % \usepackage{ulem} \definecolor{source}{gray}{0.95} % my comment style \newcommand{\myCommentStyle}[1]{{\footnotesize\ttfamily\itshape\color{gray!100!white} #1}} % my string style \newcommand{\myStringStyle}[1]{{\footnotesize\ttfamily\color{violet!100!black} #1}} % my symbol style \newcommand{\mySymbolStyle}[1]{{\footnotesize\ttfamily\color{violet!100!black} #1}} % my keyword style \newcommand{\myKeywordStyle}[1]{{\footnotesize\ttfamily\color{green!70!black} #1}} % my global style \newcommand{\myGlobalStyle}[1]{{\footnotesize\ttfamily\color{blue!100!black} #1}} % my number style \newcommand{\myNumberStyle}[1]{{\footnotesize\ttfamily\color{brown!100!black} #1}} \lstset{ language={}, % characters tabsize=3, escapechar={!}, keepspaces=true, breaklines=true, alsoletter={\#}, breakautoindent=true, columns=fullflexible, showstringspaces=false, % background frame=single, aboveskip=1em, % automatic space before framerule=0pt, basicstyle=\footnotesize\ttfamily\color{black}, keywordstyle=\myKeywordStyle,% keyword style commentstyle=\myCommentStyle,% comment style frame=single,% backgroundcolor=\color{source}, % numbering numbersep=5pt, numberstyle=\myNumberStyle, numberfirstline=true, % caption captionpos=b, % formatting (html) moredelim=[is][\textbf]{}{}, moredelim=[is][\textit]{}{}, moredelim=[is][\uline]{}{}, moredelim=[is][\color{red}\uwave]{<wave>}{</wave>}, moredelim=[is][\color{red}\sout]{<del>}{</del>}, moredelim=[is][\color{blue}\uline]{<ins>}{</ins>}, % smalltalk stuff morecomment=[s][\myCommentStyle]{"}{"}, % morecomment=[s][\myvs]{|}{|}, morestring=[b][\myStringStyle]', moredelim=[is][]{<sel>}{</sel>}, moredelim=[is][]{<rcv>}{</rcv>}, moredelim=[is][\itshape]{<symb>}{</symb>}, moredelim=[is][\scshape]{<class>}{</class>}, morekeywords={true,false,nil,self,super,thisContext}, identifierstyle=\idstyle, } \makeatletter \newcommand*\idstyle[1]{% \expandafter\id@style\the\lst@token{#1}\relax% } \def\id@style#1#2\relax{% \ifnum\pdfstrcmp{#1}{\#}=0% % this is a symbol \mySymbolStyle{\the\lst@token}% \else% \edef\tempa{\uccode`#1}% \edef\tempb{`#1}% \ifnum\tempa=\tempb% % this is a global \myGlobalStyle{\the\lst@token}% \else% \the\lst@token% \fi% \fi% } \makeatother \lstset{literate=% *{0}{{{\myNumberStyle{0}}}}1 {1}{{{\myNumberStyle{1}}}}1 {2}{{{\myNumberStyle{2}}}}1 {3}{{{\myNumberStyle{3}}}}1 {4}{{{\myNumberStyle{4}}}}1 {5}{{{\myNumberStyle{5}}}}1 {6}{{{\myNumberStyle{6}}}}1 {7}{{{\myNumberStyle{7}}}}1 {8}{{{\myNumberStyle{8}}}}1 {9}{{{\myNumberStyle{9}}}}1 } %\newcommand{\ct}{\lstinline[backgroundcolor=\color{white}]} \newcommand{\needlines}[1]{\Needspace{#1\baselineskip}} \newcommand{\lct}{\texttt} \lstnewenvironment{code}{% \lstset{% % frame=lines, frame=single, framerule=0pt, mathescape=false } }{} \newenvironment{codeNonSmalltalk} {\begin{alltt}\sffamily} {\end{alltt}\normalsize} -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

[Pharo-project] Nautilus look & feel
by Stephan Eggermont June 15, 2012

June 15, 2012

While a design competition is fine, there are still some things we can improve now without needing someone with taste :) When looking at a nautilus browser (in the moose daily build, ConfigurationOfNautilus-BenjaminVanRyseghem.238), I notice the following: Inconsistent use of space: - method and method category panes in the top row go 1px further down; - the four buttons in the middle have equal horizontal spacing, though they belong to three groups; - no space between SBD/IC and text pane; - the background of the selection downarrow of the history navigator should be one pixel larger up and down; - the selection downarrow should be centered in its background, and aligned center with SBD/IC; - the line between the text part and the arrow part of the history navigator should be removed to be consistent with the scrollbars. Why is Class bold? Why different fonts for SBD/IC and Groups/Hierarchy/Class/Comments? Inconsistent use of widgets: - SBD and IS use the same widget for two kinds of behavior (popup menu vs 1 of three choice); - SBD and Class/Instance button have similar behavior and different widgets; - SBD/IC use a rounded widget with very different lighting/shadow. Inconsistent use of color: - Graying out hierarchy means no selection possible. The grayed-out classes can be selected. The grayed-out History Navigator can be selected - SBD/IC widgets very much dominate because of the heavy shadows/dark gray & black outline; - The history navigator select is the only widget using a gradient. Hierarchy shows disabled, SBD & IC not. Calculation of horizontal width for package scrollbar is incorrect. Only SBD, IC show a hover text explanation. What is the meaning of the icons? TrueType has a kind of cube icon. Hover, left- and rightclick provide no information. Stephan

[Pharo-project] Wrong message displayed during refactoring?
by Conrad Taylor June 15, 2012

June 15, 2012

Hi, when I'm on the class side, the wrong message is being displayed when trying to move a method. For example, I'm seeing the following: Refactoring -> Move to class side instead of Refactoring -> Move to instance side Also, I'm seeing the same thing when I'm on the instance side of a given class. However, the functionality is correct. -- * * *Think different and code well*, -Conrad

[Pharo-project] DefaultCommandLineHandler error
by Sean P. DeNigris June 14, 2012

June 14, 2012

I don't know if this is a bug (seems like it) or an artifact of Jenkins' build process, but... If you download https://ci.lille.inria.fr/pharo/view/Pharo%202.0/job/Pharo-2.0/151/artifact… , when you launch the image, there is "PostMortem: PrimitiveFailed: primitive #primClose: in MultiByteFileStream failed" signaled from the DefaultCommandLineHandler. It seems maybe the argument list has not been reset? It's still trying to evaluate /builds/jenkins/workspace/Pharo-2.0/Pharo-2.0/Pharo-2.0.st Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/DefaultCommandLineHandler-error-tp4634837.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Pharo-project] Kickstarter (was Look and font competition)

You probably have to pay - or get >> interested - (the right) professionals to do it, and itâs worth it too! Stef answered: >Yes but so far we cannot afford it. Yes - often developers are not the best designers. Either we find a designer that is able to devote his time to Pharo or find some money to pay one. Correct? There are new so called "crowd-sourced funding sites" like kickstarter.com. If "light-table" [1] from Chris Granger was able to get $316,720 (as of today) then Kickstarter may be a platform to get some Pharo funding as well: a) a proposal to fund a better design for Pharo b) a proposal to fund a better future with Pharo Looks like a good video about the projects goals/vision and a short summary may help to convince others to help funding. Anything we can do into this direction? Heretic question: what would it cost to build Pharos vision? Thx T.
