NumericalMethods and SciSmalltalk

by nacho

I have an application that uses DhbNormalDistribution from NumericalMethods in Pharo 3. Will in the future NumericalMethods be integrated with SciSmalltalk?

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo Sound of Silence

by Xavier MESSNER

Hi, > We should discuss how to solve this. Neither "copy the squeak plugin", nor > "disabe pulse-audio", > is a good solution. The two methods can be used. But I think the best is not to use the plugin. If the plugin is changing and is no longer compatible with Pharo or conversely you can no longer use this method. At the moment this is not the case. While there, disable pulse-audio allows you to use Pharo with no change in its basic version. What seems to me to be less complicated in case of bugs on the sound system. When writing the article for Linux Magazine (a French magazine) I asked myself this question. Should I write to use the Squeak's plugin or simply stop Pulse-Audio? I put myself in the place of a newcomer in Pharo who wants to use the sound system. Install a plugin from elsewhere to run Pharo could give the image of a not finished tool. While there, the plugin does not exist and it does not matter because the sound works with a clear and simple method. It works out of the box. After that, in a near future we should have a plugin for Pulse-Audio or best, Linux should have only one method to access sound, but it's another story :) Xavier. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Sound-of-Silence-tp4801562p4801768.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

FYI, Ian Piumarta implemented telnet with full terminal (VT102) emulation. It uses a pty interface and thus supports mutt and text editors directly in the image. http://squeakvm.org/unix/goodies.html#html/goodies.m4.2.0 It works very well and does exactly what you want, but it was written more than 10 years ago and I cannot say what would be required to make it work on Pharo.

by kilon alios

probably the biggest reason is that the list has been quite inactive till now. Another is that many of pharo users find it easy to contribute back to pharo because of the nature of the enviroment and the third , the community is just to small to have a sizable pharo-user list. Personally I am surprised that Pharo-dev has not much more.
