It will be closer to what non-ST people are used to, and tools like the ones GitHub offers will work better when files contain more. But it's not available yet. I'm working towards it, though. > > I think I am going to commit a fileout of the project, maybe people will > find easier to peek at. Do you have other suggestion? That may be easier for now. Good luck getting them to look at it! Spreading Smalltalk is good. Regards, -Martin

Thank you for the answers! Actually my question has a rather silly reason: I find it difficult to navigate and peek at code in the current format. I would like to show ST code to other people through GitHub â it is pretty common for me to discuss implementations of katas, for example, from multiple platforms only looking at the GitHub project â, but the format get in the way. People usually give up of looking it because it is hard to navigate through the directory tree and understand all the separate pieces as a whole, and so I must explain my solution verbally and people get suspicious of ST and unwilling to try the environment for the first time. :( I think I am going to commit a fileout of the project, maybe people will find easier to peek at. Do you have other suggestion? Thanks!

Do you have something specific in your mind ? What are your needs and desires for an alternate Filetree format ? What you want to see changed in Filetreee ?

The current package formats in Pharo are, as you probably know, Filetree and MCZ (Monticello archives). I find Filetree easier to use, managing source code in Git. >From Filetree was developed Cypress, which is very similar, and intended to be compatible across different Smalltalk dialects. I'm working on a second version of the Cypress standard, which will have two basic formats: file-per-method, similar to the current Cypress, and a file-per-class format. The two formats will be logically equivalent, but each has strengths and weaknesses regarding the tools they work with. I hope this answers some of what you were looking for. Further questions are welcome. Regards, -Martin

Xtreams: Debugging Grammars

by Chris Cunnington

>When I evaluate: > parser := PEGParser parserPEG parse: 'Grammar' stream: PEGParser grammarEmailAddress actor: PEGParserParser new. >I get: KeyNotFound: key 'quotedstring' not found in Dictionary >How am I supposed to debug that to find the typo in my giant string above?! Hi Sean, Your error is saying is that there is no key called 'quotedstring' in the dictionary in the grammar ivar of your parser. In each parser is a grammar ivar. It contains a dictionary. The values of the dictionary are graphs of compiled blocks. Each node of the graph is a block with arguments that are blocks that have arguments that are blocks, etc. It's a graph of compiled blocks. Try this. Add in PEGParser class. grammar3Names " a grammar to create a parser to sort three names as per page 24 of Grune's book Parsing Techniques (1990)" ^'Sentence <- NAME NAME <- "tom" / "dick" / "harry" ' Now execute this. (PEGParser parserBootstrap) parse: 'Grammar' stream: PEGParser grammar3Names reading actor: PEGParserGenerator new. That will show you the code that will create the dictionary in the grammar ivar. Now make a change. myparser := (PEGParser parserBootstrap) parse: 'Grammar' stream: PEGParser grammar3Names reading actor: PEGParserParser new. You generated the parser, not the code for the parser. To use the parser. myparser parse: 'Sentence' stream: 'harry' reading actor: nil Now let's look at the same thing in three ways. PEGParser>>#grammarPEG this is the grammar PEGParser>>#parserBootstrap this is the code generated by the PEGParserGenerator from grammarPEG PEGParser>>#parserPEG this is the parser returned by PEGParserParser from grammarPEG You will see that PEGParser parserBootstrap and PEGParser parserPEG are interchangeable anywhere. In fact, if the goal is to populate the grammar ivar with a dictionary to make a parser, then #parserPEG starts to grate on one's nerves, because you already have what you need in the grammar ivar by evaluating PEGParser parserBootstrap. #parserPEG compiles the grammarPEG using PEGParserParser into the grammar ivar to make a parser, but it's the exact same as what was already there. It's irritating. I'll release some examples in a package called Xtreamly some time before Christmas to help start understanding Xtreams-Parsing. HTH, Chris

Next question is it possible to have separate pillar files generate separate HTML so I can have multiple {{{content}}} instead of one big one ?

by Dimitris Chloupis

So I feel andventurous and decided to use Pillar to make my personal website I have started using the welcome example and I see that ! creates a heading but also adds a number to it probably to mark chapters, sections etc Is there a way to avoid this numbering and still have a header ?
