There are two alternatives: 1. extract specific views in a separate class and make that one be extensible 2. offer a generic mechanism to disable unwanted views. This allows one to provide an alternative view and disable the default one. > P.S. The new String inspector as demoed in > > https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/1102159122571710465 > > looks great!

GT FileReference inspector menu items

by Alistair Grant

Hi Doru, I've been adding menu items to the AbstractFileReference Items tab by modifying AbstractFileReference>>gtInspectorItemsIn: This obviously isn't a good way to add menu items as different packages will over-write each other and was wondering if an extensible framework had been included in the new GT toolkit (e.g. using pragmas to define the menu items)? (or am I missing something in Pharo 8)? If not - consider this a feature request :-) P.S. The new String inspector as demoed in https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/1102159122571710465 looks great! Being able to see the character easily is something I've wanted many times. Thanks! Alistair

Ok I will contact the editor telling that there are some wishes from the community to do something. After we can brainstorm on what should be purpose and outline.

Re: [Pharo-dev] looking for an author of a Beginning Pharo or related

by Ben Coman

Obviously its good to be circumspect at such an earlier stage, but I can imagine a few "good" editors who publishing a book would really lend some legitimacy and exposure to Pharo. That would be overall beneficial even if the book is not free. Stef, I am interested to know more. cheers -ben On Fri, 1 Mar 2019 at 17:01, Thomas Dupriez <tdupriez(a)ens-paris-saclay.fr> wrote: > Hello, > > The timing of this mail is interesting, because just yesterday I stumbled > on the "Free Software Needs Free Documentation" preface of the GDB > documentation. > > It's a dozen paragraph so not exactly a short read, but the gist of it is > that the author urges other authors to use free documentation licenses for > the documentations/manuals they are writing, so that they can be modified > and grown by the community along with the free software they talk about. > > I've attached the full version if some people are interested in reading it. > > Sorry for this tangent, StÃ©phane.
