* New Pharo Text Model
Skill level: advanced

Mentor: Guillermo Polito (guillermopolito@gmail.com) maybe Igor Stasenko?

Pharo transition to vector graphics needs a new TextModel. Some work related was done by Dennis and Igor [1] and Alain Plantec [2]. However, polishing and Athens integration is still waiting. In this project the student will look at the existing work and get a polished solution, integrate it with existing tools and Athens. Also, it is desirable to pay attention to Mars compatibility.

* Revisiting morphic widgets
Skill level: intermediate

Mentor: Guillermo Polito (guillermopolito@gmail.com)

Current widgets in morphic are not easily identifiable: the existance of the vanilla and Pluggable* forms makes it complex. Also, common behavior between widgets is scattered around. This project will aim to visit and refactor morphic widgets:
� - repackaging them
� - identifying and removing duplications
� - removing the #update: #changed mechanism and replace it by a�
� - writes examples and documentation for people willing to write desktop applications in Pharo

* New Pharo look and feel

Mentor: Guillermo Polito (guillermopolito@gmail.com)

Details:
� There have been already some efforts for making pharo look less alien for newcomers [1]. This project will be about designing a new welcoming interface/desktop. Examples of this would be a new search bar probably based on the work of Sean de Nigris [2], get rid of the unintuitive world menu and replace it by a more visible variant, and make the shortcuts consistent all over the system.
