Hello!
My student is looking for a topic for her term project/paper in area of Computer Graphics and UI maybe. I didn't pay enough attention to this area for some time, so I ask if there are some tasks we could help to solve here? Please note, she has no strong background in CG. One topic could be something about Morphic, but what is it exactly? Or any other idea is welcome also.
Do you know many other environments where Morphic was applied successfully outside the Squeak niche? GTK 2 is a very popular GUI library (by far much more users than Morphic) and there is a ported implementation for GNU Smalltalk: http://bioskop.fr/gtk_tutorial/ And there are some starting points for Squeak here: http://squeakgtk.pbworks.com/w/page/10714189/FrontPage http://blog.summer.squeak.org/2008/05/introduction-to-squeak-gtk-project.htm... Or even better, you may try Qt, some initiatives and comments exists for other Smalltalks: https://github.com/thephred/gst-qt http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/userblogs/runarj/blogView?showComments=true&p... Best regards, Hernán
And one more thing: our university imposes some additional requirements thus not every practically useful topic can be accepted, I'll have to select so more ideas is better.
TIA for any help.
