The Smalltalk Renaissance Program
by horrido Jan. 13, 2015

Jan. 13, 2015

I've launched a PR campaign to promote and advance the use of Smalltalk (and Amber): http://smalltalkrenaissance.wordpress.com/ <http://smalltalkrenaissance.wordpress.com/> I am seeking the support of the Smalltalk community. My intention is to make Smalltalk Renaissance /a rallying point/ around which everyone can gather and contribute to this campaign. Over the coming weeks and months, I shall outline my plan (which is still evolving). There have been many prior attempts to popularize Smalltalk. None have had any traction. Despite the best efforts of the Smalltalk community, today Smalltalk has become a largely forgotten language. (Smalltalk has fallen off the cliff at the TIOBE index, and it ranks poorly at Redmonk and langpop.corger.nl.) /I am trying something different./ Smalltalk Renaissance is a PR campaign. It is trying to /market/ Smalltalk, not on the exclusive basis of /technical merit/, but also by addressing criticisms and generating excitement about the future of software engineering. It is an ambitious campaign, but in this business, if you don't think *big*, then don't bother wasting your time. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/The-Smalltalk-Renaissance-Program-tp4797112.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

GT tool request
by stepharo Jan. 13, 2015

Jan. 13, 2015

Hi I found the blue rectangle morph painful because it blocks me when I want to freely edit expression and result. Would it be possible that when I type enter the blue rectangle text is paste in the pane below its expression. Right now I have to copy and paste explictly and it not working. I hate so much this broken interaction.... Example (20@200) printString get blue rectangle press copy parentheses got hilighlited no idea why then I press enter to go to the next line (my selection vanished of course because the magic things selected everything automatically) and I can paste the result and start to edit it. I sincerly hope that GT guys will understand and modify it because right now this is a show stopper to me. It breaks so badly interaction with texts. Stef

Cormas now open-source
by Serge Stinckwich Jan. 13, 2015

Jan. 13, 2015

Dear all, the CORMAS modelling platform is now open-source and available under the MIT licence. CORMAS (Common-pool Resources and Multiagent Systems; Bousquet et al., 1998) has been developed to provide a multi-agent framework that can be used to simulate the interactions between a group of agents and a shared environment holding natural resources. The code is written in VisualWorks 7.6 and a port to the Pharo/MOOSE has started recently. If you are interested, you can join the mailing-list here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/cormas-dev All issues are here: https://github.com/cormas/cormas/issues An early dev version on Pharo can be loaded in the last MOOSE 5.0 image: Gofer new url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/SergeStinckwich/CORMAS/main'; package: 'ConfigurationOfCormas'; load. (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfCormas) loadDevelopment Regards, -- Serge Stinckwich UCBN & UMI UMMISCO 209 (IRD/UPMC) Every DSL ends up being Smalltalk http://www.doesnotunderstand.org/

Modifying methodDict breaks System Browser
by Atlas Jan. 13, 2015

Jan. 13, 2015

Hi, After replacing the method of a class with an object of a class implementing the /run:with:in/ method, the context menu of the System Browser stops appearing, a debug context menu "Why you see this menu. Debug" pops up instead. After putting the original method back, the browser works again. Code: o := Interceptee new. m := Interceptee methodDict at: #method. Interceptee methodDict at: #method put: Interceptor new. o method. "Breaks context menu?" Interceptee methodDict at: #method put: m. "Browser works again" Is anyone else having this problem? Or am I doing anything wrong? Thanks -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Modifying-methodDict-breaks-System-Browser-tp4799147.… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

PettitParser and Python
by kilon alios Jan. 13, 2015

Jan. 13, 2015

Hello guys I am learning PettitParser , I dowloaded the video tutorials of Tudor Girba (very good tutorial Tudor , well done ) and other documentation and I was wondering if a parser for Python already exists . I hope I am not asking something obvious. For my project I want to parse python types , that will be given to me as strings , to pharo objects. So that means parsing lists, dictionaries and other usual candidates. For example a python list is like '[1, 3, 50, [45, 'hello', 0.2], 63]' etc Anyone already worked on such problem ?
