Hi Torsten,
I really appreciate what you're doing. Right now I'm super busy, though, because I just found out Physical Etoys is going to be included by default in all the laptops of the "Conectar Igualdad" project (which is like an argentinian version of OLPC), so I have to hurry up and make a new version that works in windows and linux within the following 10 days. It's really *great* news but I'll have a lot of work to do (mostly testing) to make sure it works reliably.
As for the packages install order, the following should work: 1) Connectors (already installed in Etoys image) 2) OSProcess 3) AST-Core 4) PhysicalEtoys 5) CTranslator 6) Arduino-Core 7) Arduino-Etoys 8) Arduino-Compiler 9) Arduino-EtoysCompiler
Stef, some of these packages won't work for Pharo but the fixes done by Torsten should work. You can load them using the ConfigurationOfArduino and then manually fetching the Arduino-Compiler-TS.51.mcz from the Arduino repo.
Thank you very much for your work, Torsten, as soon as I finish with this, I'll try to get someone to loan me a Mac so I can test and make a version with Mac support at last :)
Cheers, Richo
2012/4/10 Torsten Sadowski <tsadowski@gmx.net> Hello Richo, hello Stef,
PhysicalEtoys should now work on a Mac. It is necessary to put the Image, Arduino.app (Version 0023), an empty /Arduino/Sketches and possibly the VM into a single directory. Then just add Connectors, OSProcess, CTranslator, AST?, OmniBrowser?, Arduino-Core, Arduino-Etoys, Arduino-Compiler, Arduino-EtoysCompiler and PhysicalEtoys from SqueakSource. I don't remember the correct order and some stuff might be missing... Is there a class/method search for SqueakSource?
It would be nice if you could test what I have done and drop me a line if it does not work.
Cheers, Torsten
