[Pharo-project] Using DSM...
by StÃ©phane Ducasse Aug. 6, 2008

Aug. 6, 2008

We found that Morphic Kernel depends on Morphic Demo because DockingBar!!! is referencing ClockMorph. Now checking if we can remove DockingBar we found that Morphic Kernel depends on SmallLandColorTheme because this guy update the docking bar. The fact that Morphic-Kernel depends on System-Support is not that crazy but DockingBar should not be in Morphic-Kernel. We will fix that. Stef

[Pharo-project] OB-Tools
by Lukas Renggli Aug. 3, 2008

Aug. 3, 2008

OB-Tools (http://source.lukas-renggli.ch/omnibrowser) is a package that aims to build the remaining development tools on top of OmniBrowser. It currently includes working versions of the Inspector, Object Explorer, Debugger, Process Browser, File Browser, Transcript and Workspace. I wonder if anybody would be willing to take over the effort? I don't have much time to work on it and I think it would be a pity to let the code rot. The core is relatively stable, and there are only very few things missing compared to the original morphic tools. It would be cool to add tests similar to what we have for OB-Standard. As far as I know Damien Cassou would be interested to include the library in his development images. So, any takers? Cheers, Lukas -- Lukas Renggli http://www.lukas-renggli.ch

[Pharo-project] Some recent development done with Pharo
by Hilaire Fernandes Aug. 3, 2008

Aug. 3, 2008

I have been using happily these past two weeks Pharo for newer development in DrGeo, http://blog.ofset.org/hilaire/index.php?post/2008/08/01/DrGeo-II-macro-cons… Keep the good work, it is important for people like needing a reliable and well maintained image. Btw, regarding UI feel, I found using NiceFont and NON-rounded window give a me a nice look and feel. Hilaire
