Seems that Pharo is a magnet for this kind of project. I've been writing one as well and using it to organize my research notes. Does anyone working on personal info mgmt tools want to talk offline? I expect we're running into some of the same issues, both conceptual and technical. Evan

Aggregation framework in MongoTalk?
by phil＠highoctane.be Feb. 18, 2019

Feb. 18, 2019

Is there anyone using the aggregation framework of MongDb through MongoTalk? It uses the aggregate() command, so I was wondering if this could be supported out of the box or if there is a need for an additional Operation. TIA Phil

About validation
by StÃ©phane Ducasse March 11, 2018

March 11, 2018

Hi I read the chapter on validation of the mentoring course book of andres valloud. http://www.lulu.com/fr/fr/shop/andres-valloud/a-mentoring-course-on-smallta… And I love this extension of SUnit. I loved the idea when I saw it for the first time at Lugano (presentation of Leandro Caniglia). I encourage everybody to read it. Now does anybody implemented in Pharo the SUnit extension? I would like to play with it and eventually write a chapter on it for the next book. The idea is so good. Stef

Mea Culpa
by horrido Aug. 14, 2016

Aug. 14, 2016

Okay, so far, I've made two mistakes. First was my lack of sensitivity to cultural differences around the world. Now that I know better, I shall do better. Second was my failure to distinguish between different subgroups within the Pharo forum. The reason I chose Pharo forum to discuss my campaign was the fact that it is the most active Smalltalk forum there is. People who are interested in Smalltalk join the most active forum generally, and this includes not only Pharoers, but people from ESUG, Squeak, Cincom, Amber, Redline, etc. So, for example, when I appealed for contributors to the Redline project, I should've distinguished the target audience as those groups other than Pharoers. This was my failure and I own up to it. It is unfortunate that I must use the Pharo forum for this purpose. The Smalltalk community is so terribly fragmented that there is no universal Smalltalk forum to address, at least, none that is actually *inhabited*. Without the ability to address the largest number of Smalltalkers, the SRP cannot make any progress. I'm sorry, but I have to be blunt. If anyone can offer a practical alternative, I'd like to hear it. Otherwise, the SRP has only two choices: 1) Continue what it is doing on the Pharo forum, and be mindful of which group(s) I am addressing. 2) Fold up the campaign and leave the destiny of Smalltalk to the Fates. Without the ability to reach out to Smalltalkers everywhere, I am hopelessly disadvantaged.

Tables in Pillar
by phil＠highoctane.be April 3, 2016

April 3, 2016

How is one doing a cell with content wrapping on multiple lines? With the | X | Y | abcd | some very long text that should be wrapping but apparently doesn't. So it is very annoying when one attempts to describe a long thing, which is one purpose for a table. I get one single line for each entry. How to do that? TIA Phil

Using GTSpotter how do I find an implementor of #accept ?
by Paul DeBruicker Feb. 20, 2016

Feb. 20, 2016

when I hit shift+enter and type 'accept' I get things that are not #accept, e.g. #accept: and AbstractAcceptor. If I add a space after accept it doesn't help. What do I not understand? Thanks Paul

World lastKeystroke and openInWorld: aPasteUpMorph
by Markus Schlager Feb. 20, 2016

Feb. 20, 2016

Hi, I'm using pharo to teach smalltalk as first 'real' programming language at school. With older versions of pharo I was glad that my pupils could track keystrokes so easily by evaluating World lastKeystroke. With Pharo3.0/4.0 this only returns '<down>' independently of any keys I'm typing. f := PasteUpMorph new openInWorld. f takeKeyBoardFocus. f lastKeystroke. Is returning the empty string. Hence, my question: Is lastKeystroke broken, or how is it meant to be used now? Second problem: In older versions of pharo this would work: f := PasteUpMorph new openInWorld. b := EllipseMorph new. b openInWorld: f. But with Pharo 3.0/4.0 the last line raises an error: MessageNotUnderstood: PasteUpMorph>>startSteppingSubmorphsOf With f := WorldMorph new openInWorld. b := EllipseMorph new. b openInWorld: f. pharo freezes. So: How is openInWorld: meant to be used? Markus

Halo Menu On Spec Tree Node
by Craig Johnson Jan. 6, 2016

Jan. 6, 2016

Hi All, I had an issue - when I opened a Halo on a Spec tree node in the UI and select the menu Icon, I got a DNU message. However if I selected a normal Morph, the menu Icon worked fine. I'm using Pharo 4.0 released version. Fixed this by changing TreeModel>>iconFor to: iconFor: aNode ^ iconBlock value cull: aNode content*s* cull: aNode Craig
