[Pharo-project] FontTest>>testDisplay failing in Pharo image due to new StrikeFonts

by Adrian Lienhard

Hi, The test FontTest>>testDisplay fails in the latest Pharo image. If somebody has a bit of time left, it would be great to get a fix. We are almost down to 0 failures/errors in the Pharo image... http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=1555 Adrian ___________________ http://www.adrian-lienhard.ch/

Re: [Pharo-project] New User Experience Suggestion for 1.0

by Adrian Lienhard

Please note that there is an issue in the tracker that discusses this. I've suggested to add a workspace but do not add a long text and code but link to the pages on the web that contain it so that we can more easily make updates. http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=1479 Tim, would that be helpful for new users of Pharo?

Re: [Pharo-project] Issue 1554

by Adrian Lienhard

Hi Danny, Thanks for your contribution. Your change is in the package Ocompletion, which is outside Pharo- core. This package is maintained by Romain. I added Romain to CC so he can merge your fix into the main branch of Ocompletion.
