but filing in FixBallonMorph flyover help.1.cs from http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5742 seems to work in Pharo 1.4 too. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Polymorph-help-text-tp4633024p4633050.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Polymorph help text

by Jeff Gray

I am building a UI with polymorph. It's all working well. One curious thing is that the hover help over my controls displays with a carriage return just before the last character. I'm using 1.4 on linux 64bit. Anyone else seen this? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Polymorph-help-text-tp4633024.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Pharo-users] Another new Blog

by Ted F.A. van Gaalen

Hi Guillermo Thanks for you clear writing in your blog (even i can understand it :o) A very long time ago we had also bootstrap loaders. It was a small deck of about 40 punch cards (40 assembler source lines) to awaken an NCR mainframe, which then spend its long day with running accounting programs.. related cool nostalgia: http://www.ruleworks.co.uk/digital/NCR-Century-Mainframes.htm you won't believe this: http://archive.computerhistory.org/resources/text/NCR/NCR.CRAM.1960.1026462… I am inclined to see a Smalltalk image almost as a living thing, which you can send to sleep and awaken again. You topic "The Image Dilemma should be read by a lot of IT-ers that are not Smalltalkers. Image based: It should be obvious.. Writing out a new improved and cleaned image dynamically , that's a very good idea! UCACUUGUCGGUCAAAUCU... Can't help the association: I just saw a documentary on Arte TV, about creating biological life from DNA-fragments "from scratch" so to speak. Wow, Fascinating, thrilling. If Smalltalk would be a cell (e.g. a bacteria), then the Smalltalk core (its image) would be comparable to its DNA string. So, taking this analogy further, sending out its image is like e.g. a virus emitting its DNA.. but this is perhaps where the analogy ends, because, if i get this right, you would be running "intelligent" agents through an existing image (DNA) to synthesize and emit a changed/improved? new image. However, in biosphere, the changes are mostly caused "outside" by natural selection, where better adapted entities (DNA) survive. (or is there also (inside the cell internal DNA changing going on) It would be it lot's of tiny? Smalltalk entities interacting in a conditioning environment and improve that way.. but this is 2012.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8f/DNA_replication_en… should it inspire you? kind Regards Ted ted van gaalen *it* services www.tedvg.com <http://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 86 247 On 03.06.2012 06:38, Guillermo Polito wrote: > Hi all! > > Probably some of you already saw my tweets about it: > http://playingwithobjects.wordpress.com/.
