Re: [Pharo-dev] Pharo on RPi

by jannik laval

I have a Phratch that begin to work on RPi ( https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/view/Phratch/job/Phratch-OneClick-RP… ). So, you can probably use Pharo 3 Now I have problems with FileSystem, I will ask in another thread.

[Fuel] Serialize and materialize to GZip

by roberto.minelli＠usi.ch

Hi, Following the Fuel test FLUserGuidesTest>>#testGZip I discovered that I can serialize and materialize to and from GZip archives. Cool! I tried with some small test object and it worked like a charm. When I tried with a large objectâ¦ Serialization - It does not work, the image instantly crashes Materialization - Since I was not able to serialize the large object on GZip, I serialized "normally" than compressed the resulting fuel file using GZipWriteStream class>>#compressFile: - When I materialize from the GZip archive, it takes forever and does not succeed after more than 1 minute. Note that the same non-Gzipped file takes a couple of seconds to be materialized. How can I handle this? Thanks in advance, Roby

I like everything in this thread. As for clickable URLs, I've been thinking we should have this available by default for some time. With NativeBoost, you can easily do this in OS X with "NBMacShell run: 'open ', aUrl asString". What's a dependable way to launch the default browser on other platforms? On Windows? For *nix, I found xdg-open, but wasn't sure if it was standard across many/all flavors. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/3-0-Welcome-text-tp4757142p4757153.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Just to add... looking back (I wasn't there at the time) when Pharo forked from Squeak, it seems "cleaning" and "innovating" were two significant points you wanted differentiate from Squeak for Smalltalker insiders. Now a few years on, that is probably firmly established and you can start targeting the market beyond Smalltalk insiders.

3.0 Welcome text

by Ben Coman

Some feedback on the Pharo 3.0 Release welcome text. --- From watching the Ruby conference video from another recent thread, use of the word "immersive" really caught my attention. As well, from another recent thread, newcomers probably don't care if its Smalltalk - either actual or inspired. So lets sell the strongest outside marketing message first... Welcome to Pharo, an immersive live programming environment. rather than Welcome to Pharo, a clean, innovative, free, and open-source Smalltalk-inspired environment. --- Newcomers wont know how to "execute" a statement, so... You can learn pharo by highlighting the next line and selecting [Do it] from the context menu: rather than You can learn pharo by executing: (Later reference to "executing" is okay.) --- > Better [ackaging for standard download Better packaging for standard download >Browser the documentation http://www.pharo.org/documentation Browsing the documentation http://www.pharo.org/documentation >Getting the Pharo By Example book (available as a free PDF): (This is the only line with a colon, remove that.) Maybe move "New class builder" under Kernel heading .
