Well, that is on purpose: in the Pharo community there is a general consensus that talking about Smalltalk or Lisp scares away people. Another goal of the article is to attract new people, if such a thing is possible. Of course, Pharo is a Smalltalk, and is based on a long tradition/lineage that we are proud of. But going forward to the future, we want no restrictions. Anyway, a fun fact is that the HP-35 came out in 1972, which was pretty ground breaking in terms of new technology, but Smalltalk did already exist then in the form of Smalltalk-72 - something to think about. > On 25 June 2014 14:40, Sven Van Caekenberghe <sven(a)stfx.eu> wrote: > The code was ready for some time, but you pushed me to finally write the text, I was postponing that - so thanks for the push ! > > On 25 Jun 2014, at 15:35, Yuriy Tymchuk <yuriy.tymchuk(a)me.com> wrote: > > > Amazing, > > > > I have to read this ASAP.

Roassal-Spec event handling

by Yuriy Tymchuk

Hi, can anybody help me to understand the event handling strategy implemented in roassal-spec adapter? Because all things are using the concept of âlast eventâ and and itâs a bit hard to understand events my debugging them or whatsoever. Iâll be thankful for any help. Cheers! Uko

Yes, I agree. It is simply awesome. Thanks a lot! Bests, Jordi PD: I also love old calculators, though my first love was the HP-41CV > Sven.

Sven. This is outstanding. It is not only a comprehensive tutorial, but also is good loking, with a little touch of nostalgia for those who used a RPN calculator in the past :) I wish we all could produce code and documentation the way you do. Maybe cloning you is an option. Congratulations. Best regards, ps: there is a typo in the first image of "Modelling the HP-35" section. Esteban A.

Thanks for interesting article. It will help me sink my teeth further into Pharo Damn, it is such a long time since I saw slide rule anywhere. Gulp, I shouldn't betray my age. It looks like you forgot to mention the S word. It first appears in the Appendix and then in a URL. Watch out for the flames and the debates.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Spec Button Shortcut Indication

Thanks, Nicolai & Ben, I am going for my own ButtonModel subclass which overwrites #label, integrated by overwriting #newButton on my ComposableModel subclass - until there is another solution.

[Tutorial] Rediscovering the UX of the legendary HP-35 Scientific Pocket Calculator

by Sven Van Caekenberghe

Hi, I have written a new, extensive, long form, introductory article about Pharo. Rediscovering the UX of the legendary HP-35 Scientific Pocket Calculator A tutorial on Pharo, test and specification based immersive programming https://medium.com/@svenvc/rediscovering-the-ux-of-the-legendary-hp-35-scie… It is a bit different because - it is based on a non-trivial example - it uses a backdrop story unrelated to Pharo - it uses several multimedia elements - it is published on medium.com which is a general publishing platform The appendix describes several ways you can get the code. I think building both a Spec and Seaside UI from the same specification as well as reusing functional tests in different contexts is cool. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.
