Hijacking a Configuration for loading a Github Baseline
by kilon alios Jan. 27, 2015

Jan. 27, 2015

So I have a Configuration in the Meta repo of pharo 4 and 3 that loads the latest version of my project Ephestos. However I have moved my development to github since I am very happy with the workflow and since I discovered loading github repos via a baseline I have little use for smalltalkhub. So my plan is this, keep the configuration in the meta repo so people and me can install my project easily with one click via the wonderful simple configuration browser , but I dont want anymore to load any versions with it. Instead I want to tell the configuration "load the github baseline" which means it will fetch the code from my github account master branch which is the stable branch anyway (and the only branch so far) . That will allow me to never have to update that configuration again since it will just load the latest code from github repo. The question is how to do this the easiest and cleanest way possible ?

Making the halo around windows preview more contrasted
by Offray Vladimir Luna CÃ¡rdenas Jan. 27, 2015

Hi all, As usual, when I put the mouse over the name of a window, a small preview appears with a grey allow with the full name of the window, but letters are white surrounded by a pale grey making the full name really difficult to read. There is any way to increase the contrast there between font and background? Thanks, Offray

Re: [Pharo-users] Help with video recordings at Fosdem needed
by Stephan Eggermont Jan. 27, 2015

Hi Udo, I've sent you an email. There will be two streams recorded from each room, one from the speakers laptop (needs to be vga) one from the camera. Camera operator only needs to point the camera in the right direction and press start/stop at the appropriate times. Organisation will either provide an application that can play both streams or mix them together somewhat like picture in picture. Last session is the introduction to smalltalk for non-smalltalk developers. That's hands-on and pair programming, not much need for video there. Stephan

Hi, beside the existing "OS-Windows" support for Windows operating system the "Pharo OS project" (http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~OS) now also has new subprojects for "OS-Unix" and "OS-Linux-Ubuntu" with some initial support for these native platforms as well. You can load it from the config browser in Pharo 4.0. I guess the attached screenshot will explain it all... Bye T.
