[Pharo-project] Adding Pharo to Ubuntu Software Center
by dimitris chloupis Dec. 12, 2012

Dec. 12, 2012

So the story is that I finally decided to replace my old relic at work with a new pc i5 quad core with 16 gbs of ram , nice graphic card and a fast SDD disk . So I thought it was time to go back to ubuntu , because my last pc was too slow for it and had several issues. Fortunately ubuntu 12.10 installed along side my win7.Â Took some time, ubuntu could not see my ethernet , had to purchase a usb one just to have access to internet to update ubuntu so i can build the drivers for the onboard one. And now after tons of updates for several things ubuntu is up and running so as it was naturally I went to ubuntu software center to install the software I need. Installed emacs which i use for quick text editing and irc chatting and then my eye fallen on the developer sections, lisp, python, haskell and all the other usual suspects being in the front page with their charming large icons. I did not expect to find smalltalk in front page so i use the search. Found squeak , but pharo was nowhere to be found. So are we interested in exposing pharo to more people , linux users ? If we are I could give a try adding pharo to ubuntu software center. Its not exactly a simple process there are a lot of steps to be taken and obviously it needs a specific process to approve the addition of pharo to ubuntu repositories. I am clueless about the whole process but I am willing to learn and try . If there is alread a pharo ubuntu guru who is willing to try that will excuse my laziness if not I can proceed with trying but I make no promises how long it will take me. I am totally noobish on ubuntu.

[Pharo-project] Getting input from a pen tablet?
by Carla F. Griggio Dec. 12, 2012

Dec. 12, 2012

Hi everyone! I hope this is a stupid thing that is just driving me crazy because of my * newbieness* on the subject, but if I evaluate this: Sensor tabletPoint I get a PrimitiveFailed error. The plugin needed for getting input from pen tablets is JoystickTabletPlugin and is an external plugin of Cog. What do I need to do to make that message work? Thanks! Carla.

[Pharo-project] Pharo 2

I was wondering if it really worths working with Pharo 2 yet, in terms of stability and new features. First question is the link in the website the link to the latest Pharo 2 image ? Is Athens included in the Pharo 2 image ? How much production ready Pharo 2 image really is ? Should I move to it or is it still a moving target ? What new Pharo 2 image offers ?

[Pharo-project] NB squeaksource comits
by Ciprian Teodorov Dec. 11, 2012

Dec. 11, 2012

Hi Igor, sorry for bothering you again with this issue but again somebody (squeaksource ;)) removed me from the commiters of the NB project. Now I have two proposals, a very small one: removing the asm int3, and decrementing the callback counter in #generateCallbackLeaveCodeFor:leaveAddr: so that the vm does not crash on callback error case. Secondly, I have converged to an implementation of NBExternalEnum (using SharedPool) which I think it is cool, and I wanted to share it with you. Maybe you like it... maybe you don't ... ;) Cheers, -- Dr. Ciprian TEODOROV IngÃ©nieur DÃ©veloppement CAO tÃ©l : 06 08 54 73 48 mail : ciprian.teodorov(a)gmail.com www.teodorov.ro

Re: [Pharo-project] How to manipulate HandMorph's position?
by Fernando Olivero Dec. 10, 2012

Dec. 10, 2012

HandMorph is only drawn when its carrying another morph. What you see in the screen is the "hardware cursor", maintained by the vm. This separation was done for efficiency reasons, when drawing Morphic. This is why you evaluate stuff like Cursor wait showWhile:[], to alter the appearance of the "hand/cursor", instead of changing the HandMorph directly. So what you are doing by sending the message above is simply positioning a hidden morph, the hand, at a 10@10. Maybe, try to see if you can position programmatically the Cursor instead.

[Pharo-project] How to manipulate HandMorph's position?
by Carla F. Griggio Dec. 10, 2012

Dec. 10, 2012

Hi everybody! I'm trying to implement some Kinematic Templates<http://hci.uwaterloo.ca/sites/default/files/uist_madness_kin_templates.mov>in Pharo for a course assignment. For that, I'm trying to modify the position of the HandCursor, but trying to evaluate naive messages like: ActiveHand position: 10@10 leaves me nowhere. Is there some black magic I need to know about the HandMorph in order to manipulate it's position they way I want? Thanks! Carla.
