Nice! After people have the chance to test it, we should enable it. (but not with “format as your read”) and than a little while later remove the old one. Marcus

We just integrated Blue Ink, the new pretty printer, in the latest Pharo 5 image ! Basically what was working still is and what was not well now is.

It is not yet enabled by default, we will wait for feedbacks first. If you want to try it, just type :

RBProgramNode formatterClass: BIConfigurableFormatter. BIConfigurableFormatter formatAsYouReadPolicy: true

Feel free to contact me via the mailing list or personnal mail if you experience a strange behavior. I tried to improve all of them but with you I am sure all the cases will be treated in an exhaustive way.

Thanks for testing it, I hope it will convince you to use format as you read in Nautilus or just automatically format your code.

Hi, please let me explicit know in such cases when the package structure of the image is changed (some package is added/deleted/removed). I need to update system configurations and/or minimal image generation. Cheers, -- Pavel 2015-07-22 11:10 GMT+02:00 Marcus Denker <marcus.denker@inria.fr>:

Perhaps we should have a Preferences category "Technology previews." Then when I get time later to try things it will be easier to find than searching for half-remembered stuff on the mail archives. cheers -ben

This seems like a good idea... but often by the time I finally get around to look at it such things they are merged and used by default. People that are interested will look at it early and late stranglers may not be as valuable. Maybe something more in-your-face would work better... such as on first Pharo image opening there would be small notification in a corner saying... "We've added a new cool formatter... try it now?" and on click it would enable it/open settings. If you ignore it it will disappear in couple of seconds... This could be however annoying if you are actually not interested, because every time you download a fresh image it would bug you just like the Pharo 4.0 welcome message that I have to close every time...
