Re: [Pharo-project] About milestone
Bryce, Any and all efforts on the Linux VM are greatly appreciated. Better support for virtual keys would be great. I frequently use the numeric keypad with num-lock off, and the keys are largely ignored on Linux; the win32 VM works as expected. It is not my intention to dump work on you, but if you are hacking the vm anyway... Please let me know if I can help out with running down keycodes, etc. Bill Wilhelm K.

I would really like to have soon a first official release. So what do we want to get in/out and before the release: - better look for sure - tests green.
I think that this is important to release 0.1 Since I would really like to use the NewCompiler by default and remove the old one.
I can try to build a Linux VM with true-type font support in the next few months. Bryce P.S. I'd like to see closure support, a couple of primitives should make the closure compiler Matheu and Marcus have been working on performant. I doubt that it needs to wait for an image format change. _______________________________________________ Pharo-project mailing list Pharo-project@lists.gforge.inria.fr http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project

Thanks, first let me finish the current task in Exupery, then once I've got that stabilised, I'll look at compiling the Freetype support. After that we'll see how much more time is available. I'm already maintaining an Linux VM for Exupery, so adding a few features for Pharo shouldn't be too much extra work. Bryce P.S. I just tested. Here the numeric keys work as numeric keys with the num-lock selected or not. So I suspect it's configurable via X without needing a VM modification.
