there is also an options in settings that downloads and install sources for you automagically. This is the right place to report issues and if you are 100% sure its a bug you can report it also in the pharo fogbuz On Fri, Mar 20, 2015 at 7:04 PM, Sebastian Heidbrink <sheidev(a)yahoo.de> wrote: > Hi, > > I recently mentioned issues with the installation of the pharo-launcher on > Windows 8.1 > > Turned out I just needed to download the PharoV30.sources file and place > into the installation folder. > > Now everything seems fine. > > Is this also a topic for the pharo bug list, or is there another place > where I can mention this? > > Sebastian > >

Pharo-Launcher Windows 8.1

by Sebastian Heidbrink

Hi, I recently mentioned issues with the installation of the pharo-launcher on Windows 8.1 Turned out I just needed to download the PharoV30.sources file and place into the installation folder. Now everything seems fine. Is this also a topic for the pharo bug list, or is there another place where I can mention this? Sebastian

Sounds reasonable. Actually perhaps the behaviour should be that subsequent presses of the key moves to the next match. Please log an issue at pharo.fobgugz.com with your idea. cheers -ben On Fri, Mar 20, 2015 at 11:15 PM, Sebastian Heidbrink <sheidev(a)yahoo.de> wrote: > Hi! > > I think it is a mix of a feature and a bug. > > When ever one implements a Magritte, Moose or Morphic project the > functionality to select the package list and enter/hit key "m" does not > fast scroll down to those packages but rather selects the "Most Viewed > Classes" entry. > > I propose to catch "m" and ignore "Most Viewd Classes" for this fast > scroll/find functionality. > > Sebastian >

Confusing ZeroDivide

by webwarrior

Why this: [ 1/0 ] on: ZeroDivide do: [:ex | ex resume: 1 ]. returns 1, but this: [ 1.0/0 ] on: ZeroDivide do: [:ex | ex resume: 1 ]. hangs (causes infinite loop) ? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Confusing-ZeroDivide-tp4813627.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

SystemBrowser feature request / bug report

by Sebastian Heidbrink

Hi! I think it is a mix of a feature and a bug. When ever one implements a Magritte, Moose or Morphic project the functionality to select the package list and enter/hit key "m" does not fast scroll down to those packages but rather selects the "Most Viewed Classes" entry. I propose to catch "m" and ignore "Most Viewd Classes" for this fast scroll/find functionality. Sebastian
