As soon as I can get a minimal functional prototype of the outliner writer. For that, I need to solve the issues with updating objects from browsers, even if this is done explicitely instead of automatic. I have some clues and I imagine that can be solved with ports and message to the outside, but details still escape me. I have asked in the proper thread. Cheers, Offray

Re: [Pharo-users] Gettext with pharo 3 and seaside 3.1.2

by Usman Bhatti

Hi Peter, For my application needs (English -> French), I normally use the gettext package from STHub and it works without any problems for me. http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~PharoExtras/Gettext GetText so far not including in the Configuration Browser but we should include it. There is also a configurationOf for Gettext and some explanation in Pharo book how to use the package. http://pharo.gemtalksystems.com/book/LanguageAndLibraries/Localisation/Prep… I dont know the seaside version and I have never tested it. usman On Sun, Sep 7, 2014 at 3:32 PM, Peter Schorsch <tralalas(a)freenet.de> wrote: > Hi, > > Just started with pharo and seaside.

Re: [Pharo-users] Gettext with pharo 3 and seaside 3.1.2

by Alain Busser

Hi, I don't know if it is related but I have problems importing french files inside Pharo 3: Anytime when there is an accentuated character there is an error, and the file is not imported. Even if the character is a quote inside double quotes (like in "it don't work") there is an error message. Right now I can't import MathsOntologie ( http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/MathsOntologie/MathsOntologie-AlainBusser.68.mcz) into Pharo 3 and I have to go on developing it in Pharo 1.4...

What is the purpose of the seaside-gettext package ? Is it a relic or is it useful? Gettext is orthogonal to Seaside.
