Adrian Thanks, that was easy. Works from Monticello. Strange it doesn't work using the .sar file from that link.

Re: [Pharo-users] Finding packages

Hi Adrian Not having much luck really. I've tried two versions of OsProcess, one I found from a previous Pharo message and the other from your link. Both fail to load with Syntax errors and leave all the categories installed but no code. This is the error which was in UnixProcess (a bit odd seeing as I'm on Windows). I also loaded the OsProcessPlugin but that appears to require compiling according to the readme. This all seems to be much harder than it should be, or maybe it's just me. Regards Bob argsAsFlatArrayAndOffsets: anArrayOfNullTerminatedStrings "Given anArrayOfNullTerminatedStrings, flatten the array into a string buffer, leaving space at the beginning of the buffer for a list of C pointers. Answer the string buffer and an array of address offsets. The address offsets may later be converted to C pointers and overlaid on the beginning of the buffer, resulting in a data structure which can be treated as a C array of strings suitable for use as a Unix argv vector." "OSProcess thisOSProcess argsAsFlatArrayAndOffsets: (UnixProcess arguments collect: [:e | e, (Character value: 0) asString])" | offset arraySize flatStringArray ws addresses | "Preserve offset space to hold address pointers." offset := (anArrayOfNullTerminatedStrings size + 1) * self processAccessor sizeOfPointer.

The first thing I do (don't know if it's the best idea) when I am searching for a package is to take a loot at www.squeaksource.com and search the project in the "projects" tab. But, it seems to be down for the moment. Adrien.

@Stef. Thanks for the link to the book. This is something I had not come across previously. I had seen the Google Code Pharo site but I'm still a little overwhelmed by all the information that is out there in various places. It's taking me a while to get familiar with it all and where to look for stuff. I'll get there eventually :) --Thomas. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Changing-Fonts-in-Pharo-tp2267560p2267705.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

@Nico. Thanks, that was what I needed. System Fonts > Code Font. Already set to DejaVu Sans Mono... I just increased the size to 12pts. I'm never satisfied... how about the font colour and background colour? Is there a setting for these or a tweek I can make via some nifty Smaltalk code? --Thomas. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Changing-Fonts-in-Pharo-tp2267560p2267701.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Pharo-users] Changing Fonts in Pharo

Hi Thomas, just go to: World -> System -> Preferences -> System fonts, there you will be able to set your favourite fonts. Other option that I use when I share code with my students is: open a Workspace and execute: *Preferences setDemoFonts*. and choose the size you desire.

Changing Fonts in Pharo

by tgc05

I'm new to Pharo and am working through the PBE book. I would like to change the fonts (and their size) used in the OmniBrowser and generally throughout Pharo. In particular, the font in the text input panes. I'd like to be able to use DejaVu Sans Mono, if available. Failing that, the default font is OK, if it could just be larger. (or is there a zoom feature?) Can someone tell me how I can customize these settings?

Finding packages

by Bob Cowdery

Sorry if this is a bit of a basic question. Could someone enlighten me on how to install packages please. I want to be able to run command files under windows from within Pharo. It looks like I need OsProcess or maybe CommandShell. I assume these should be installable from Monticello. I don't see any search facility in the Monticello Browser and tried a few repositories but failed to find what I needed. What's the best way to find packages. Thanks Bob
