[Pharo-project] [ANN] Pharo Online Help 1.1. for Pharo 2.0 (now with Markdown support and tutorials)

by Torsten Bergmann

Hi, the Pharo Online Help project for Pharo 2.0 now also supports markdown [1] for writing documentation and tutorials. Markdown is an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format that is translated into X(HTML). If you are in Pharo 2.0 just go to Tools -> ConfigurationBrowser and load PharoOnlineHelp. In the panel select a port or just click on "Start server". Now point your browser http://localhost:8080 Attached you will find some screenshots. The help system also includes an intro to Pharo and a start for a simple Smalltalk introduction (based on the old beginners workspace). Next steps: - maybe we can extend the integrated API browser to support webdoc [2] - move to SmalltalkHub project [3] - continue with Pharo and Smalltalk tutorials for beginners - better support for resources like images, js, css, ... (currently hard coded in OHFileRequestHandler) Feel free to help, code is on http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/PharoOnlineHelp.html Thanks T.

Re: [Pharo-project] Stack VM problem

by Eliot Miranda

That's not a VM bug. 1008 returns the Cogit version. The StackVM doesn't include a JIT. hence no Cogit version. The bug is in VirtualMachine class>>version. On Sat, Feb 23, 2013 at 7:03 AM, Sean P.

Every mac starting from 2006 can run 10.6, one has to go back to 2005 (which is, over 7 years ago) to find a machine that can only run 10.5. We should decide: Do we use our *very* limited resources to have a nice trivial museum showcase, or do we invest those resources to have a future? Marcus

[Pharo-project] webdoc is back online

by Camillo Bruni

I made a little effort to get webdoc up and running again. I think with the forthcoming stable release of pharo it makes sense to put an documentation of the whole system online. I took the seaside image and statically exported (almost) all content and uploaded it to the gforge: http://pharo.gforge.inria.fr/doc/webdoc.html I will spend some more time this weekend to fix the missing contents (mostly the popups)

I really don't get why people think that new version of Pharo should run on an OS that old. And if you can't afford to buy a new machine, I have an advice: Don't buy Apple, ever. Buy a shitty old Dell laptop (best some from 2007, too) and install Linux. Problem solved. Marcus
