Organization for the Pharo Conf.
by StÃ©phane Ducasse April 24, 2012

April 24, 2012

Hi guys, I'm preparing the conference. I would like to make sure that we can get discussion around technology and business. I was thinking that we could have a session where you provide a presentation with 3 () slides - Your business - Your technological asset - What you can share We could put theses slides on the web as an advertisement. What I would like to get is the message that - other people should be able to see that we can do business in Pharo, - that they could get some knowledge, librariesâ¦ I'm looking for your ideas on how to setup the program so that we could have exchange on business opportunities.

See UTF8TextConverter --------------------------------- Thanks for the tip. But shouldn't that be done by the system. The database uses UTF-8. Pharo uses UTF-8 so an Ã in the database should give me an Ã in the transcript window. BTW: I tried the UTF8TextConverter and it just produces more garbage. Regards Roger

Sqlite and UTF8 Problem
by Roger Gilliar April 23, 2012

April 23, 2012

Hi, I would like to access a sqlite database from pharo. So far that seems to work. The only problem is that my sqlite database contains UTF-8 data and that for example Ã is displayed as Â¦Ã. Is there a workaround for this problem ? BTW: I'm using Pharo 1.4 and installed sqlite support like this: Gofer new squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository'; package: 'ConfigurationOfSQLite3'; load. ((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfSQLite3) project version: '1.2') load: 'Tests'. Regards Roger

truly basic terminal emulation
by Daniel Lyons April 23, 2012

April 23, 2012

Hi, For fun I'm "porting" my UMIX UM implementation I wrote in C for ICFP 2006 to Pharo. For the sake of this, I need a really, really basic terminal emulator, honestly just a window showing text in a fixed-width font that I can read from and write to. Bonus if I can't move the cursor around and delete outputted text, but not necessary. CommandShell looks like overkill for what I need. I'd rather build something basic from scratch to learn more about Morphic. I'd appreciate any direction you could share with me. Thanks, â Daniel Lyons

setting up nautilus on 1.4
by Johann Hibschman April 23, 2012

April 23, 2012

Hi all, I just joined this list for real, although I've been following the RSS feed for a month now. In short, I'm a rank amateur. I just tried upgrading to Pharo 1.4. As has been discussed, the default browser doesn't have any refactoring support, so I tried to install Nautilus, following Mariano Peck's blog post of 2012-02-26. (This was actually my first use of Gofer.) It seems to work, but I can't bring up the browser menu with Command-click any more. Did the standard "action click" change somewhere, or is this just an idiosyncrasy of Nautilus? I do most of my work with a MacBook, so I only have one mouse button. If I do the "two finger click", I can can bring up the menu, but that's awkward. Is there a setting somewhere that I can use to bring back command-click? Control-click is the more standard modified-click on the Mac, but that seems to be used by some morphic menu. Basically, since I'm pretty new, I don't know whether this change in behavior is expected or whether it's due to a mistake of my own. Is there a Nautilus list I could ask this on? Is there a different browser that I should try? (I just want method renaming, no "fancy" refactorings.) Regards, Johann

Fullscreen, was FullScreen..
by Ted F.A. van Gaalen April 20, 2012

April 20, 2012

Perhaps a small thing (had to change my fullscreen button) noticed the change from FullScreen to Fullscreen which is correct.. (had hoped you've implemented in 1.4 a full screen button in the left or right corner.. instead of having still to do this in menu: System ->Settings ->Appareance -> Desktop ->Fullscreen mode -> checkBox maybe in the next release? still, many thanks Greetings Ted -- ted van gaalen *it* services www.tedvg.com Ted F.A. van Gaalen Hauptstr. 19/3 D-88636 Illmensee Germany T: 49 7558 92 17 840 M: 49 151 587 862 47
