Meaning of icons in Nautilus
by nacho Oct. 18, 2014

Oct. 18, 2014

Hi there! I was wondering about the meaning of some of the icons in Nautilus. I know C stands for Class T for Trait but there are some that I don't know. For instance those classes that have three dots (orange, green and yellow). Also where can I search about Nautilus plug-ins? Thanks in advance! best regards Nacho ----- Nacho Smalltalker apprentice.

FFI on Linux again
by Annick Fron Oct. 17, 2014

Oct. 17, 2014

Hi, I Have tried the following code on Linux , but the call breaks. Is it because of the X11Window structure missing or else ? Annick ==== testGetOurWindowLocation "self new testGetOurWindowLocation" | display ourWindow aParent anX anY aWidth aHeight aBorderWidth aDepth | display := X11Display XOpenDisplay: nil. ourWindow := display ourWindow. (Alien lookup: 'XGetGeometry' inLibrary: 'X11') primFFICallResult: nil withArguments: {display. ourWindow. (aParent := Alien new: 4). (anX := Alien new: 4). (anY := Alien new: 4). (aWidth := Alien new: 4). (aHeight := Alien new: 4). (aBorderWidth := Alien new: 4). (aDepth := Alien new: 4)}. (anX unsignedLongAt: 1) inspect

Spur images
by Benjamin Pollack Oct. 17, 2014

Oct. 17, 2014

My apologies if this is already spelled out somewhere and I simply can't find it, but are there any Spur images for Pharo yet?Â I can only find Squeak ones. It's not a big deal either way; I was just playing with an algorithm that, after very heavy optimization, I was able to get down to about 278ms per pass (from ~700ms initially from a naive implementation). For contrast, the equivalent Python runs in ~80ms. Looking at MessageTally, it seems at least half of that 278ms is spent noodling around in WideStrings and other small things that the Spur object format ought to help with, so it'd be interesting to see how much of a speed boost that gives without any further work.

Re: [Pharo-users] [Pharo-dev] PharoNOS

Yes, I tried in VirtualBox. Same issues here: used OSProcess to query for the DHCP given IP address and noticed that AioPlugin is not available. I like that it is a naked Pharo 3.0 image. So I would not preload the command shell - one can easily provide a config in the config browser for additional things or load an own config via script/network. So one could adopt to its own needs with a simple additional loading (like switching to themes, logo, ...). And yes: keyboard layout switching is required. Really nice! Can the ISO image building get automated so we can have a CI script that builds an ISO for Pharo 3.0, current 4.0 and others ... Â Thx T.Â Gesendet:Â Donnerstag, 16.

Â Works well. Â What would be nice: Â - a PharoVM with AioPlugin so that CommandShell works nicer. - a preloaded CommandShell - a way to configure the keyboard to another layout Â and... a Dark/DawnTheme and a wicked cool logo for the background! Â Configurations are loading without trouble. Â Congratulations on that sweet idea and materialization.

openstreetmap + roassal
by Nicolas Lusa Oct. 16, 2014

Oct. 16, 2014

Hello pharo-users community, my name is Nicolas and I am a student of Informatics at USI in Lugano. I am currently working on my master thesis and I am getting into pharo, playing around a little bit and tasting the potential that is hidden in pharo. I recently saw a tweet from mr. Serge Stinckwich about how to build 2d buildings and rivers with the openstreetmap API and roassal as drawing support. I tried to replicate the code since I would like to play with it but I got some errors that I didn't menage to fix. So I was thinking to ask here if anyone has such code to share. Thanks in advance. Cheers, Nicolas
