Agreed. I suppose there could be a platform-dependent theme option that would make a reasonabl choice, but one should be able to override to use any theme anywhere. One possible solution would be to add some sample scripts (could be as simple as do-its in a workspace) that customize a few things. <whackDeadHorse>We should probably be more concerned about how long it takes to open a browser than we are about which of the various wonderful themes is selected by default.</whackDeadHorse> Bill -----Original Message----- From: pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr [mailto:pharo-project-bounces@lists.gforge.inria.fr] On Behalf Of Damien Cassou Sent: Friday, June 26, 2009 2:05 AM To: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] Experiences with 10342 2009/6/25 Mariano Martinez Peck <marianopeck(a)gmail.com>: >> Is there a preference that would need to be made platform dependent? >> I don't quite understand (probably since I am on Mac). > > It would be nice :)Â As the swapMouseButtons! > In Mac, you have the controls to minimize, maximize and close a > windows on the top left of the windows.

[Pharo-project] update to OCompletion

by Romain Robbes

Dear Pharo users, I fixed a few things in OCompletion: -When completing class names, performance should be improved when scrolling the list of possibilities. -Pressing tab when there are no matches in the cache of recently used entries will bring up the normal completion menu. -Fixed issue when on rare occasions the selected item in the menu would be out of sync with the entries and cause a walkback. As always, OCompletion is available at: Installer squeaksource project: 'OCompletion'; install: 'OCLoader' Cheers, Romain -- Romain Robbes http://www.inf.unisi.ch/phd/robbes

In Mac, you have the controls to minimize, maximize and close a windows on the top left of the windows. In Linux and Windows, this is on the right.
